Jericho

let's go
back to the roadshow
drink with the old crow
who cut us down
blind him
force feed and remind him
there's nothing quite strong as
the sons of the railroad line
tell me why did you go into the cold
deep in the mines of Jericho
when no diamond can save your mortal soul
tell me why did you go into the cold
deep in the mines of Jericho
when no diamond can tell you where to go
i'll grant you
loads of new stories
all these new songs
from around the world
but don't get
blinded by the dollars
or chase the white collars,
the sons of the other side
tell me why did you go into the cold
deep in the mines of Jericho
when no diamond can save your mortal soul
tell me why did you go into the cold
deep in the mines of Jericho
when no diamond can tell you where to go
so let me free
from your prison
free from your boundries
that hold me back
i'll walk now,
the road to redemption
the pathway to enter
my peace with god
tell me why did you go into the cold
deep in the mines of Jericho
when no diamond can save your mortal soul
tell me why did you go into the cold
deep in the mines of Jericho
when no diamond can tell you where to go
