Rivers Of Babylon - The Melodians

Written by：Brent Dowe/Frank Farian/James McNaughton/George Reyam

By the rivers of Babylon

Where he sat down

And there he wept

When he remembered Zion

'Cause the wicked carried us away in captivity

Required from us a song

How can we sing King Alpha's song

In a strange land

'Cause the wicked carried us away in captivity

Required from us a song

How can we sing King Alpha's song

In a strange land

Sing it out loud

Sing a song of freedom sister

Sing a song of freedom brother

We gotta sing and shout it

We gotta jump and shout it

Shout the song of freedom now

So let the words of our mouth

And the meditation of our heart

Be acceptable in

Thy sight

Oh Fari

So let the words of our mouth

And the meditation of our heart

Be acceptable in

Thy sight

Oh Fari

Sing it again

We've got to sing it together

We've got to shout it together

By the rivers of Babylon

Where we sat down

And there we wept

When we remembered Zion

'Cause the wicked carried us away in captivity
