I was Walkin' down the road And every mile that I traveled And I'm walkin' the Jericho road
But I kept on walkin' Walkin' the Jericho road And the sun set red over of gold And I'm walkin' down the road
Well, Joshua fit the battle, how the story goes 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 down the Jericho road His bent over from a heavy load And he was down the Jericho road
I said, "Papa, don't you me? Won't you lay burden down?" He shook his head and told me, "Son, you better around" He kept on walkin', walkin' down the Jericho
Ooh, walkin' the Jericho Ooh, down the Jericho Ooh, walkin' the Jericho, ooh, ooh
I met my Walk, down the Jericho road And his hands were bloody but his face was And he was walkin' down the Jericho
I met my Walk, down the Jericho road With a baby in her arms that I'd never She was walkin' down the Jericho
She said, "It's just a orphan child I found along the way I'll him as my own and he'll forgive us all someday" Kept on walkin', walkin' down the Jericho
I met my (Walk, walkin' the Jericho road) I met my (Walk, walkin' the Jericho road)
I met my (Walk, walkin' down the road) I met my (Walk, walkin' down the road)
I said hello (Walk, down the Jericho road) I said hello (Walk, down the Jericho road)
I said hello (Walk, walkin' the Jericho road) I said mother (Walk, walkin' down the road)
