Well that mean old dirty Frisco and that low down Santa Fe.
Mean old Frisco and that low down Santa Fe.
You know they take my girl away, Lord, and blow back out on me.
Well my mama, she done told me, and my papa told me too.
Mama told me and my papa told me too.
A woman that gets in your face, Lord she ain't no friend for you.
Well I'm goin' away now baby, and I won't be back until fall.
Goin' away, baby. Lord, I won't be back till fall.
If I don't come back by then, Lord, I won't be back at all.
Well that mean old dirty Frisco and that low down Santa Fe.
Mean old Frisco and that low down Santa Fe.
Gonna take my gal away, Lord, and blow back out on me.Joshua fit de battle ob Jericho
Jericho
Jericho
Joshua fit de battle ob Jericho
an' de walls cam' a tumblin' down.
You can talk about ye' man ob Gideon
you can talk about ye' man ob Saul
not a man like good ol' Joshua
an' he was de best man of all 'dat mornin'.
Joshua ...
When the chillun of Israel begin to march
Seven times roun' an' roun'
Ol' Joshua commanded de sun to stan' still
An' de sun did never go down 'dat mornin'
Joshua ...
Den de lamram sheep horns begin to blow
Trumpets begin to soun'
Ol' Joshua commanded de Chillun to shout
An' de walls came tumblin' down 'dat mornin'
Joshua ...
