I was Walkin' the Jericho road And every mile that I showed And I'm walkin' the Jericho road
But I kept on walkin' Walkin' down the road And the sun set red fields of gold And I'm walkin' down the Jericho
Well, Joshua fit the battle, that's how the story The come a-tumb-a-lin' down I know But I'm walkin', walkin' down the Jericho
I met my mother walkin' the Jericho road in her eyes and her head hung low And she was walkin' down the road
And I met my father walkin' the Jericho road His back bent over a heavy load And he was walkin' down the Jericho
I said, "Papa, you know me? you lay your burden down?" He shook his and told me, "Son, you better turn around" He kept on walkin', down the Jericho road
Ooh, down the Jericho Ooh, walkin' the Jericho Ooh, down the Jericho, ooh, ooh
I met my Walk, walkin' the Jericho road And his hands were but his face was clean And he was down the Jericho road
I met my Walk, walkin' down the road With a baby in her arms I'd never seen She was walkin' the Jericho road
She said, "It's just a little child I found along the way raise him as my own and he'll forgive us all someday" Kept on walkin', walkin' down the road
