Rivers of Babylon Lyrics

Jah Rastafari
Liveth in the hearts of I and I
Fight the heathen day by day
They shall fall
Jah!
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
And there we wept
When we remembered Zion

But the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha's song
In a strange land?

Words of our mouth
And the meditations of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight
Oh, verai!
But the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha's song
In a strange land?

Ah-ah-ah-ah, wo-oh
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah, oh yes
Ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah, wo-oh
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ha-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah, wo-oh
Ah-ah-ah-ah
For the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha's song
In a strange land?

By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
And there we wept
When we remembered Zion

But the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha's song
In a strange land?
