The Battle of Jericho Lyrics

JOSHUA FIT THE BATTLE OF JERICHO

Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho,
and the walls came a tumbalin' down, down, down, down.
You may talk about your men of Gideon,
you may talk about your men of Saul,
but there's none like good old Josh-a-ua,
at the battle of Jericho, that morning;

Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho,
and the walls came a tumbalin' down, down, down, down.

Joshua rose early in the morning,
that is when the trumpets blew,
they marched around the city,
at the battle of Jericho.
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho,
and the walls came a tumbalin' down, down, down, down.

Right up to the walls of Jericho,
he marched with spear in hand,
Joshua commanded the children to shout,
and the walls came a tumbalin' down, down, down, down;
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, the trumpets they did blow, so,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, and the walls came a tumbalin' down.

Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, now you know, Jericho,
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho, and the walls came a tumbalin' down.
Now you know who tore the wall down,
now you know who tore the wall down, down, down,
Joshua!(in a whisper)
