Babylon A Weep Lyrics

For it has been said that when either a man or women vow the vow of Nazarite
No scissors nor razor shall be upon his head as this has been said by the King of Kings,
Lord of lords our Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie I - Jah Rastafari...
The Babylon a weep, weep on
The Babylon a weep, weep on

Rasta a go tear down Babylon
The Rasta a go tear down Babylon
I, I, I, I a go tear down Babylon
The Rasta a go tear down Babylon

Babylon a weep, weep on
Babylon a weep, weep on

Rasta a go tear down Babylon
The Rasta a go tear down Babylon
Bongo Far I a go tear down Babylon
The Rasta a go tear down Babylon
The days of lice head and chill of foot amongst children is over
And education and Brytish youth now in college taking over, welcome
Neither this is the time when children and fathers listening most to grand massa [firebun]

Rasta a go tear down Babylon
Rasta a go tear down Babylon
Freedom fighters a go tear down Babylon
Revolutionaries a go tear down Babylon

R-A-S-T-A, Rasta, which means
Righteous African Stands Tall Alone, forever
And the king that sits not upon a golden throne
Is eating after the pig and sucking off his bone
Boy you no understand
The Rasta a go tear down Babylon
The Rasta a go tear down Babylon
Fe truth and rights we a go tear down Babylon
The Rasta a go tear down Babylon

We no sleeping out again and you have to respect each and every crocus bag [move up now]
And the time is coming shortly when we shall use the marijuana and thatch our place
[swear it, my god]

Rasta a go tear down Babylon
The Rasta a go tear down Babylon
Ayashanti a go tear down Babylon
The Rasta a go tear down Babylon
