tony ashton & jon lord - band of the salvation army band lyrics
pillbox hats, collecting tin in a tambourine
and where you’ve been, man?
oh i’ve just been here, digging this band
just an hour or more with the repertoire
and everybody shouted for more
funny guy with a cornet in his hand
i didn’t know what line it was
i didn’t have the right of way
i didn’t know what kind it was
until i walked away
they were playing us all of these hymns
telling us all about our sins
and the crowd moved all around, tapping all of their feet
the trombone and the cornet there
and the guy with the tuba just don’t care
when the music echoed all around the streets
i didn’t know what line it was
i didn’t have the time of day
i didn’t know what kind it was
until i walked away
that music played so sweet
it knocked me on the floor
salvation in the street
and the crowd called out for more
for the strange new life and the heaven sound
must be out here on the ground
a lady with tin in her hand
i turned to go and it came to pass
that the name from this almighty blast
was the band of the salvation army band
i didn’t know what line it was
i didn’t have the time of day
i didn’t know what kind it was
until i walked away
