| There’s something in my eye
|
| Well, there’s something in my throat
|
| Oh, maybe I’m not the man I used to be before
|
| Although I’m feeling strong
|
| It’s the bed where I belong
|
| Oh dancing days are over so I’m sipping on
|
| Sipping on a toddy made with love
|
| And who is she, dangling on my knee
|
| The core that is my apple or the cruel banshee
|
| Who am I to say or criticize
|
| The Devil gave me warning so I choose to live a life
|
| Well, perhaps I should go
|
| To where the trumpets roar
|
| And wait to hear the guns of Jericho
|
| I grew up in the East
|
| And I threw up in the West
|
| Oh, rant and raved
|
| And thinking Holy Jesus this is great
|
| King of my domain
|
| Well, there’s nothing in a name
|
| And it wasn’t long before I grew to realize
|
| Realize the fact we’re all the same
|
| And though I bite seldom do I fight
|
| I’ll tell you all about it in my own good time
|
| From my home I’ll hang a scarlet rope
|
| So tell me that you’ll leave me and my family alone
|
| Well, perhaps I should go
|
| To where the trumpets roar
|
| And wait to hear the guns of Jericho
|
| In Jericho
|
| Where the walls are set to fall
|
| In Jericho
|
| At the hands of Joshua
|
| So blow your horn, your siren call
|
| My seven days reclaim
|
| And I’m buried with the guns of Jericho
|
| Travel all the while
|
| With the shipmates and the wife
|
| Oh, guaranteed to see the sunrise break before the dawn
|
| So, welcome all aboard
|
| To this madness I adore
|
| And as long as we’re together for the better now
|
| Together for the better one and all
|
| And though I bite seldom do I fight
|
| I’ll tell you all about it in my own good time
|
| Well, perhaps I should go
|
| To where the trumpets roar
|
| And wait to hear the guns of Jericho
|
| Of Jericho
|
| I said the guns of Jericho
|
| In Jericho
|
| Where the walls are set to fall
|
| In Jericho
|
| At the hands of Joshua
|
| So blow your horn, your siren call
|
| My seven days reclaimed
|
| And I’m buried with the guns of Jericho
|
| Of Jericho
|
| I said the guns of Jericho
|
| Of Jericho
|
| I said the guns of Jericho |
