Yeay......Well I'm driving down this road, on this big old motorcycle
I've been riding this so many years that I've forgotten wise
Just some guys & boys & I whose in down that sunrise highway
Though when I get a western lake success I turn & say goodbye
To Jericho Road, I've already been every place I'm going
To Jericho Road, have any need to proving nothing to no one
Nowhere you want, still might be riding for all that I know
Holding my time, it's on the line on Jericho Road
Well it's a long and a straight line, see myself for falling
Only mightiness, I don't believe I've ever had the chance
Now that I know if she's waiting there if she waits 4 me in silence
It's--[gibberish]--had a chance, it's almost I can do
Jericho Road, never had a--[gibberish]--run away
Jericho Road, one--[gibberish]--on a lake.........Far as I know...[gibberish]...
[gibberish]...The Promised Land on the Jericho Road
Yeah, la la la la la la la, oh oh oh...La la la la la la la ah...
La la la la la la la, oh oh oh...La la la la la la la...
In a way we took our flag, when I filled myself with ferment
In a mono way...a holiday, oh so clever mine
It's a shame I had a chance, but I never really live in darkness
[gibberish]--a lot I can do, I know I really care
Jericho Road, [gibberish]--Jericho Road, [gibberish]--summer silence
Should've been lost...[gibberish]--nobody knows...[gibberish]--on a Jericho Road
La la la la la la la ah...La la la la la la la, oh oh...La la la la la la...
