On The Far Side Banks Of Jordan With June Carter Cash

Johnny

I believe my steps are growing wearier each day

still i've got another journey on my mind

lures of this old world have ceased to make me wanna stay

and my only regret is leaving you behind

June

But if it proves to be his will that i am first to go

and somehow i've a feeling it will be

and when it comes your time to travel like wise don't feel lost

for i will be the first one that you'll see

R: I'll be waiting On The Far Side Banks Of Jordan

I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand

and when I see you comming i will rise up with a shout

and come running through the shallow waters reaching for your hand

Johnny

Through this life we labored hard to earn our meager fare

It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes

June

So i'll just rest here on this shore and turn my eyes away

untill you come then we'll see paridise

R: I'll be waiting... (2x)
