| Well I’m standin' on top of the mountain
|
| Just about a mile from Jericho
|
| And my throat is hot and dusty
|
| Down to the water I must go
|
| Catherine the Great and brave Ulysses
|
| Playin' checkers out in the sun
|
| Jesse James and young William Bonnie
|
| Have started a religion for everyone
|
| Well I’m standin' on top of the mountain
|
| Just about a mile from Jericho
|
| And my throat is hot and dusty
|
| Down to the water I must go
|
| Well the drums they are loud down in rap town
|
| But the Pope has been quiet for days
|
| Well some gunmen robbed a bank in California
|
| And the cops blew them all away
|
| If you don’t like the picture don’t turn it off
|
| The only way to change it is to do it yourself
|
| Well I’m standin' on top of the mountain
|
| Just about a mile from Jericho
|
| And my throat is hot and dusty
|
| Down to the water I must go
|
| Peace and love on the wings of a dove
|
| Has flown away
|
| We’re payin' the rent
|
| On the blood that’s been spent
|
| On a mortgage that’s too high to be paid
|
| Well I’m standin' on top of the mountain
|
| Just about a mile from Jericho
|
| And my throat is hot and dusty
|
| Down to the water I must go
|
| Well I’m standin' on top of the mountain
|
| Just about a mile from Jericho
|
| And my throat is hot and dusty
|
| Down to the water I must go |
