Lyrics
By the rivers of Babylon
(The tears of Babylon)
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion
Then 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?
Then the wicked
Carried us away captivity
Requiring of us a song
Now, how shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion
The children of Babylon, you got to sing the song
Sing the song of love, 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 (tears of Babylon)
There we sat down (they're wanting a song)
Ye-eah we wept (sing the song of love)
When we remembered Zion (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
By the rivers of Babylon (by the rivers of Babylon), there we sat down
Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon (oh, yeah, yeah, yeah)
There we sat down (yeah, yeah)
Ye-eah we wept, (the tears of Babylon)
When we remember Zion (ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah)
