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