Make some noise, strike up the band
Pull the paint off of the ceiling
Sing down the walls of Jericho
One more time with feeling
I went walking through the valley
Arrows flying overhead
Heaven told me, “Boy, be patient”
Take the long way ’round instead
You’ve come too far to turn back now
Let me show ya how the walls come crumbling down
Make some noise, strike up the band
Pull the paint off of the ceiling
Sing down the walls of Jericho
One more time with feeling
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Drop your shield and lay your sword down
Your weapons are your voices
You will know the war is over
When the weary soul rejoices
You’ve come too far to turn back now
Let me show ya how the walls come crumbling down
Make some noise, strike up the band
Pull the paint off of the ceiling
Sing down the walls of Jericho
One more time with feeling
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Wake the echo, call the thunder
Tell them we’ve only just begun
No amen, no hallelujah
This is a song for everyone
Make some noise, strike up the band
Pull the paint off of the ceiling
Sing down the walls of Jericho
One more time with feeling
One more time with feeling, boys
Long as we’re still breathing
Sing down the walls of Jericho
One more time with feeling
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na
