My Wife June At The Sea Of Galilee

Johnny Cash

This is the 23rd of April no May
23rd of May and John and I are
Sitting on the veranda of a hotel
That is in Tiberias Israel
It is right on the Sea of Galilee
We can see to our left the place where
They held the Sermon On The Mount
And across the lake is now the land of Israel
But up until eleven months ago
Was held by Syria
On down to the right further down the
Jordan River joins the Sea if Galilee
And it's a beautiful day with the birds
You can hear the motor boats on the
Lake only one that I can see
And then a big pleasure boat that
Is coming across the other side
From the Sea of Galilee
The lake at this point I'd say is about
Eight miles wide and it's
Fourteen miles long

Hmm that's right June Israel is
Really again in it's glory
This is a beautiful place
It's in much greater glory that she was
In the days of King Herod
I'm proud to say for the Jews today King
Herod gained the throne like a fox
Ruled like a lion and died like a dog
