Fred Eaglesmith - Jerico Lyrics
The gravel flies up off the tiresLast night I caught my baby lyingShe said that she loved me Said she'd be trueI turned around and she had found somebody newI coulda took itI woulda triedBut hey, she wouldn't even tell me whyAnd there ain't no easy roadIt doesn't matter who you are or who you know Listen son,There's just one thing I knowThere ain't no easy roadI couldn't believe my very eyesOut on the street with some other guyI made the sceneThe coppers came Threw me in jail I told 'em I was not to blameThey called my sisterTook over my bailShe just said "Mister, I would hope that you would know by now"And there ain't no easy roadIt doesn't matter who you are or who you knowListen son,There's just one thing I knowThere ain't no easy roadThe whistle wailsThe train rolls onI guess I'll go back to where I come fromTo where my Daddy sits On a little porchOn a little farmIn a little town That they call JericoHe always told me Son, you should knowThe walls always tumble down Just when you're sure that they won't And there ain't no easy roadDoesn't matter who you are or who you knowListen son,There's just one thing I knowThere ain't no easy roadListen son,There's just one thing I knowThere ain't no easy road
