I was down the Jericho road And every mile that I traveled And I'm walkin' down the Jericho
But I just on walkin' Walkin' down the road And the sun set red over fields of And I'm walkin' the Jericho road
Well, Joshua fit the battle, that's how the story The walls come a-tumb-a-lin' I know But I'm walkin', walkin' the Jericho road
I met my mother walkin' down the Jericho Tears in her eyes and her hung low And she was walkin' down the Jericho
And I met my walkin' down the Jericho road His back bent over a heavy load And he was down the Jericho road
I said, "Papa, don't you me? you lay your burden down?" He shook his and told me, "Son, you better turn around" He kept on walkin', walkin' down the road
Ooh, walkin' the Jericho Ooh, walkin' the Jericho Ooh, down the Jericho, ooh, ooh
I met my Walk, walkin' the Jericho road And his were bloody but his face was clean And he was walkin' the Jericho road
I met my Walk, walkin' down the Jericho With a baby in her arms I'd never seen She was walkin' down the road
She said, "It's just a little child I found along the way I'll raise him as my own and forgive us all someday" on walkin', walkin' down the Jericho road
