Rivers Of Babylon

Boney M.

By the rivers of Babylon
There we sat down
Yeah, we wept
When we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon
There we sat down
Yeah, we wept
When we remembered Zion

When the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
Now, how shall we sing the Lord's song
In a strange land?
When the wicked carried us away in captivity
Requiring of us a song
Now, how shall we sing the Lord's song
In a strange land?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Let the words of our mouth
And the meditations of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight
Here tonight
Let the words of our mouth
And the meditation of our hearts
Be acceptable in Thy sight
Here tonight

By the rivers of Babylon
There we sat down
Yeah, we wept
When we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon
There we sat down
Yeah, we wept
When we remembered Zion

By the rivers of Babylon (dark tears of Babylon)
There we sat down (you got to sing a song)
Yeah, we wept (sing a song of love)
When we remembered Zion (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
By the rivers of Babylon (rough bits of Babylon)
There we sat down (you hear the people cry)
Yeah, we wept (they need their God)
When we remembered Zion (ooh, have the power)

By the rivers of Babylon (oh, yeah, yeah)
There we set down (oh, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, we wept (dark tears of Babylon)
When we remembered Zion (ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah)
