| Sat out the night in a bad town
|
| Workin' on some espionage
|
| Sent in there to test a battle plan
|
| Risky, but we tried to lodge
|
| Two of us pulled in, saw a red light
|
| For the people who were doing wrong
|
| I guess she was harlot but even then
|
| She had heard about-a Israel’s God
|
| We were foreign spies but she helped us to hide
|
| We said that we’d spare her her life
|
| She was a lawful woman in a bad place
|
| In a town that was due for a fall
|
| With just one move she proved she had faith
|
| Was a lawful woman after all
|
| We saw her heart was true and faithful
|
| When the town knocked she hid that fact
|
| The town they said «Those fellows from Israel
|
| Can you tell us do you know where there at?»
|
| «There not in here,» she said, «Go find them!»
|
| And everybody started to run
|
| A-jumpin' on their horse and camels
|
| In a hurry so real soon they were gone
|
| We could see they were gone so we left then
|
| We could see that we owed her our lives
|
| Well, we told her, «Don't get scared, 'cause you’re gonna be spared
|
| But we gotta see a red ribbon if ya wanna still be livin'»
|
| When the wall falls, woman in a bad place
|
| In a town that was due for a fall
|
| With just one move you proved you had faith
|
| You’re a lawful woman after all
|
| After all! |
| After all! |
| Mmmmm … After all! |
