Sleep held me in its grip
Little did I know I was fixin' to take a trip
When he first appeared, had a hood on his head
I couldn't see his face but in the Spirit I was led
Then he told me, this is what he said
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late for the Wailin' Wall
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late for the Wailin' Wall
We were standin' on a mountain, hand in hand
Gazin' down on the promised land
I saw old Jerusalem, it was gonna fall
Nebuchadnezzar was the king of it all
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late for the Wailin' Wall
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late for the Wailin' Wall
As we stood there, centuries passed us by
I saw bloodshed and gov'ts fall, in the twinklin' of an eye
Then I saw a crack appear in the Wailin' Wall
I asked, "What's happening here?"
Then he told it all
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late for the Wailin' Wall
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late for the Wailin' Wall
Yeah, I saw smoke, I saw gas
He looked me right in the eye said, "This too shall pass
Gonna last 5 days, evil spirit's givin' birth"
"There's a crack in the Wailin' Wall, hell's come to earth"
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late for the Wailin' Wall
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late for the Wailin' Wall
Some people believe that Jesus Christ is not God's Son
They are deceived by the lies of the evil one
All that is sacred to them. soon will fall
Their prayers are all wasted, it's the end of the Wailin' Wall
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late for the Wailin' Wall
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late for the Wailin' Wall
It's a little late now, baby
It's a little late
