U2 & Green Day - The Saints Are Coming lyrics

rate me

There is a house in New Orleans, They call the Superdome<br />

It's been the ruin of many a poor boy, and God, I know I'm one.<br />

<br />

I cry to my daddy on the telephone, <br />

How long now? <br />

Until the clouds unroll and you come down, <br />

The line went.<br />

But the shadows still remain since your descent, <br />

Your descent.<br />

<br />

I cry to my daddy on the telephone, <br />

How long now? <br />

Until the clouds unroll and you come home, <br />

The line went.<br />

But the shadows still remain since your descent, <br />

Your descent.<br />

<br />

The saints are coming, the saints are coming.<br />

I say no matter how I try, I realize there's no reply.<br />

The saints are coming, the saints are coming.<br />

<br />

I say no matter how I try, I realize there's no reply.<br />

<br />

New birth, rebirth<br />

Trombone Shorty<br />

Living like birds in the Magnolia trees<br />

Child on her rooftops<br />

Mother on her knees<br />

Her sign reads: I am an American<br />

<br />

A drowning sorrow floods the deepest grief, <br />

How long now? <br />

Until the weather change condemns belief, <br />

How long now? <br />

When the night watchman lets in the thief<br />

What's wrong now? <br />

<br />

The saints are coming, the saints are coming<br />

I say no matter how I try, I realize that there's no reply<br />

The saints are coming, the saints are coming<br />

I say no matter how I try, I realize there's no reply<br />

I say no matter how I try, I realize there's no reply<br />

I say no matter how I try, I realize there's no reply
