Rose of Jericho lyrics
I am a poor one
But a big man's girl
I am a citizen in the thick of this world
I have no pedigree with blood running blue
But pockets full of honey and intentions true
I heard something 'bout love
Maybe I read it in the bible
And the things you got to do to get to Heaven
Or they're gonna hold you liable
My boots are dusted and I'm flat busted but I ain't rusted no
Just looking for some water to cool me down
Said the Rose of Jericho
Gonna squeeze this world
Of all it's juice
Gonna take this heart and cut it loose
Gonna take it down to the pearly gate
And see if anyone will let me in the place
I heard something 'bout love
Maybe I read it in the bible
And the things you got to do to get to Heaven
Or they're gonna hold you liable
My boots are dusted and I'm flat busted but I ain't rusted no
Just looking for some water to cool me down
Said the Rose of Jericho
