City That's Coming Down

I’m not looking for a city going up
But the one that’s coming down
Well, man has made a lot of things
they look so fine,
They’re building so high up in the sky
They will almost baffle your mind
But the time’s going to turn, they’re all going to burn
Nowhere will be found
I’m going to be in that city
That John saw coming down
-Chorus-
I’m not looking for a city that’s going up
But the one that’s coming down
I’m not putting my trust in the one that will crumble And fall down to the
ground
But, I’m heading for the one that the Lord has made And is built eternally sound
I’m not looking for a city going up
But the one that’s coming down
Well, get your things together
And walk out through the land
You’re going to go on the Rocky Mountains
You’re going to cross on the desert sand
Well, Lot went down to Sodom, but not old Abraham
He was looking for that city
That John saw coming down
I’m not looking for a city that’s going up
But the one that’s coming down
I’m not putting my trust in the one that will crumble And fall down to the
ground
But, I’m heading for the one that the Lord has made And is built eternally sound
I’m not looking for a city going up
But the one that’s coming down
I’m not looking for a city going up
I’m not looking for a city going up
But the one that’s coming down
Well that’s New York City, Chicago
Atlanta and Baltimore
That’s Nashville and Tallahassee
You could name them by the score
I don’t have a big investment
No mansion way up town
But I’ve got one in that city
That John saw coming down
I’m not looking for a city that’s going up
But the one that’s coming down
I’m not putting my trust in the one that will crumble And fall down to the
ground
But, I’m heading for the one that the Lord has made And is built eternally sound
I’m not looking for a city going up
But the one that’s coming down
I’m not looking for a city going up
But the one that’s coming down
I’m not looking for a city going up
But the one that’s coming down
The one that’s coming down
I’m not looking for a city that’s going up
But the one that’s coming down
I’m not putting my trust in the one that will crumble And fall down to the
ground
But, I’m heading for the one that the Lord has made And is built eternally sound
I’m not looking for a city going up
But the one that’s coming down
I’m not looking for a city going up
But the one that’s coming down
I’m not looking for a city going up
But the one that’s coming down
The one that’s coming down
