Jerusalem goodbye

I be on my way I just can't stay in this old town,

Because it gets me down, oh, how it gets me down.

I must be free.

My Mama use to say: I'd end my days down on my knees.

Yes, that's what she believes, cause I do as I pleased.



So, Jerusalem goodbye, you're the covet city from the sky.

But today I walk away again, Jerusalem.

Oh, Jerusalem goodbye, I will love you till the day I die.

But today I must be on my way, Jerusalem.

Oh ho, ho. . . .



Pack upon my back the road to home trailing behind me.

I love this dusty road, oh, I love this dusty road.

It means I'm free.

I hate my mother cry to say goodbye, sorrows arouse her.

But that's just sorrow begun tomorrow.



So, Jerusalem goodbye, you're the covet city from the sky.

But today I walk away again, Jerusalem.

Oh, Jerusalem goodbye, I will love you till the day I die.

But today I must be on my way, Jerusalem.

Oh ho, ho. . . .



So, Jerusalem goodbye, you're the covet city from the sky.

But today I walk away again, Jerusalem.

Oh, Jerusalem goodbye, I will love you till the day I die. . .
