Joan Baez - Jericho Road Lyrics
I was walkin'
Walkin' down the Jericho road
And every mile that I traveled showed
And I'm walkin' down the Jericho road
I just kept on walkin'
And the sun set red over fields of gold
And I'm walkin' down the Jericho road
Well Joshua fit the battle, that's how the story goes
And the walls come a-tumb-a-lin' down I know
But I'm still walkin'
Walkin' down the Jericho road
I met my mother walkin' down the Jericho road
Tears in her eyes and her head hung low
And she was walkin' down the Jericho road
His back bent over from a heavy load
And he was walkin'down the Jericho road
I said "papa, don't you know me? Won't you lay your burden down?"
He just shook his head and told me "son, you better turn around"
And he kept on walkin'
Walkin' down the Jericho road
I met my brother walkin' down the Jericho road
And his hands were bloody but his face was clean
And he was walkin' down the Jericho road
I met my sister walkin' down the Jericho road
With a babe in her arms that I'd never seen
And she was walkin' down the Jericho road
She said "it's just a little orphan child I found along the way
I'll raise him as my own and he'll forgive us all someday"
And she kept on walkin'
Walkin' down the Jericho road
I met my mother
I met my father
I met my brother
I met my sister

Joan Baez Jericho Road Comments
I expect Baez would disagree with you since Steve wrote it, played on the album and produced it. Pretty sure those are his backing vocals as well.
Thank you for your kind words. I enjoyed making this video.
This has nothing to do with Steve Earle's
Love it - great video also - very well done.
Thank you so much for your kind comments! I'm glad you enjoyed my video. I love her new CD also. Peace, Tim
