I want to be ready
I want to be ready
I want to be ready Lord
Walking to Babylon with my gun
(x3)
Brother Rasta is dead, listen everybody says
They shoot Brother Rasta Dead!
Braggin Boys in blue they shot him through
They shoot Brother Rasta Dead!
Tonight's the night we're gonna have a big fight
They shoot Brother Rasta Dead!
They got the power, we got the right
They shoot Brother Rasta Dead!
I want to be ready
I want to be ready
I want to be ready Lord
Walking to Babylon with my gun
(x2)
Now it's my turn I'm gonna take my gun
They shoot Brother Rasta Dead!
And walk to Babylon just like a was a million
They shoot Brother Rasta Dead!
"They gonna kill you, son!", "Don't worry Mom"
They shoot Brother Rasta Dead!
Along my country way I'm gonna shout and say
"They shoot Brother Rasta Dead"
They shoot Brother Rasta Dead!(x2)
I want to be ready
I want to be ready
I want to be ready Lord
Walking to Babylon with my gun (x4)
(Spoken)
Rudy left for the City
But three days later
Washed back by the tide
Found his body on the Riverback ...
I want to be ready
I want to be ready Lord
Walking to Babylon with my gun
