The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Joshua Come Home

Joshua come back home to the island

Everyone dance in the street

Joshua come back home to the island

Happiness be complete.

Mothers will talk again to their son

Happy the talk is no longer in one

While Stephen begins and John sped the story on.

Joshua been gone too long, princess of the islands fade

Cries of pain and sorrow but there's no good work today

Joshua said he come soon, bring good work to everyone

Get together at sundown like crying in the work we done.

Craft two blocks together, singing about de land

Joyful congregation dancin' in the sand

No want to look to Babylon, Kingdom will come right here

Joyful celebration, make the slaver shake with fear.

Joshua come back home to the island

Everyone dance in the street

Joshua come back home to the island

Happiness be complete.

Mothers will talk again to their son

Happy the talk is no longer in one

While Stephen begins and John sped the story on.

Joshua talk to the angels, watch the sun on the western sea

Silent contemplation, find the man to make us free

Joshua pay a dime a clam, charge a dime for a dozen eggs

Plenty money left for rum to add power to our dancin' legs

Plenty money left for rum to add power to our dancin' legs.

Joshua come back home to the island

Everyone dance in the street

Joshua come back home to the island

Happiness be complete.

Mothers will talk again to their son

Happy the talk is no longer in one

While Stephen begins and John sped the story on

While Stephen begins and John sped the story on

While Stephen begins and John sped the story on.
