Jericho Hill Lyrics

Caleb jones was a wanted man from cody down to tucson

He had no fear of God or the law or the devil

They said he was the lucky one, but luck don't live out there

And pretty soon his outlaw days were done

There was gold up in deadwood, and women down in wicked dodge

But he wasn't headed either way this time

She was gone and he was lost and the law was on his trail

So he headed north to the graham county line

She had eyes that a man could drown in

And have no regrets at all

For he loved her like no other

So he would try to get her back or he would fall on jericho hill

What he learned from the kiawa was how to taste the wind

And how to read the secrets of the land

But he was out among the willows for the many times he'd sinned

And he could only hope that she would understand

She had eyes that a man could drown in

And have no regrets at all

For he loved her like no other

So he would try to get her back or he would fall on jericho hill

He was hoping they could get away to somewhere far from there

But she'd been keeping her distance while he'd been breaking the law

And the chances just weren't good that she still cared

So he rode through the mountains and they lost his trail

And he came out in that valley free and clear

So maybe he was the lucky one, but luck don't live out there

So come what may, his outlaw days were done

She had eyes that a man could drown in

And have no regrets at all

For he loved her like no other

So he would try to get her back or he would fall into those

Eyes that a man could drown in

And have no regrets at all

For he loved her like no other

So he would try to get her back or he would fall on jericho hill
