Very Nice City Lyrics
CHORUS
Take me up to the Very nice City
Where the Bible stops with a new beginning
in Revelation 21, yeah, yeah
Take me up to the Very nice City
Where there’s no more pain and there’s no more sinning
Take me home
(Spoken)
Hey, uh, something just occurred
A brand new earth and heaven that’s what I see, but
I know Revelation’s tough to read
But, baby, there is a place in there that I wanna be
I’ll be there till the end of time
Everything is gonna be fine
All the Christians that have ever been
Will be livin’ in the city New Jerusalem
You know, they gotta have a lot of room for them
They say it’s 1,500 miles wide
And it’s 1,500 miles high
CHORUS
Chapter 21 and 22 in Revelation
They got the trees for healin’ the nations
They got a river in the middle of the street
You’ll never have to think about the judgment seat
Because the wrath of God is complete
CHORUS
Come home with me
Come home with me
Come home with me
Come home with me
After the devil’s been thrown in the fire
Now we can all commence to start to praisin’ God
We’ll be livin’ in the city comin’ down from the sky
Havin’ a wonderful time
What’ll we find?
Hah!
It hasn’t even entered your mind!
CHORUS 2x & Guitar Solo
I wanna go (I wanna go) on those streets of gold (I wanna go)
Oh won't you please take me home
I wanna be (I wanna be) with the Trinity (I wanna be)
Oh Jesus please take me home (2x)
I wanna go (I wanna go) I wanna go (I wanna go)
Oh won't you please take me home

If anybody asks about what J is talking about (spoken part) it's because he forgot his whistle at the time of recording. As a result, they made a second recording with a whistle in it. But they didn't like how the 2nd recording turned out so they went with this recording and mixed in the whistle sound.
