letra de jericho - josh rister

(verse 1)
elijah enlisted when the towers fell, and well
y’all know what happened next
he’d get letters from his dad and had
a lady ‘cross the sea, but love can only last so many texts
as that big black eye was healing, he was feeling
ready to lay it all out for the land
of the brave and the free, so much so that he
lost himself somewhere near iran

(chorus)
he marched around that city
for nigh on 15 years
but instead of songs and trumpets
he just counted tеars
the days kept getting longеr
and he’d think “don’t ya know?
i reckon god ain’t here
like he was at jericho”

(verse 2)
but he found himself a gear seized in fear
of the crooked war machine he’d been turning
so they sent him back home, discharged all alone
and left the bl–dy wages he’d been earning
old dad had done passed on and gone
to his cabin in the sky way up yonder
tried to kindle a flame that passed, but alas
she’d gone and married, leaving him to ponder
(chorus)
he marched around that city
for nigh on 15 years
but instead of songs and trumpets
he just counted tears
the days kept getting longer
and he’d think “don’t ya know?
i reckon god ain’t here
like he was at jericho”

(verse 3)
couldn’t find a place to fit so he quit
a young man, beaten and broken in a war
that seemed it would never end and when
it spat him out he didn’t know what for
all he could see was the blood on his hands
that much red would drive any man insane
he went and fought the good fight alright
but the sh-ll shock got the best of him one day

(refrain)
elijah enlisted when the towers fell, and well
y’all already know what happened next
