About

A New Kind Of Wail

Lyrics

Chorus

When they start to wail

Praising the Lord on high

They're bringing tears to every eye

Through the streets all lined with gold

The rhythm finds a wayward soul

Verse 1

Left the stage for a holy choir

Jimi sets the cloud on fire

Bradley's singing something sweet and new

With Mama Cass on backing too

Phil is locking in the low end groove

Making every angel move

While Janis screams out her delight

In the everlasting light

Chorus

When they start to wail

Praising the Lord on high

They're bringing tears to every eye

Through the streets all lined with gold

The rhythm finds a wayward soul

Verse 2

Elvis stands beside the King

Listening to what Brian's gonna bring

Kurt is finally at peace

Watching all his sorrow cease

Jerry and Jim trade a line

Looking for a sacred sign

The heavy heart begins to melt

The kind of joy they never felt

Bridge

Down below you hear them go

Down below the rivers flow

Down below the trumpets blow

On a clear day

Such a clear day

A better day

Chorus

When they start to wail

Praising the Lord on high

They're bringing tears to every eye

Through the streets all lined with gold

The rhythm finds a wayward soul

Chorus

When they start to wail

Praising the Lord on high

They're bringing tears to every eye

Through the streets all lined with gold

The rhythm finds a wayward soul
