Boney M. - Rivers of Babylon 1978

By the rivers of Babylon there we sat down
ye-eah we wept, when we remember Zion.

By the rivers of Babylon there we sat down
ye-eah we wept, when we remember Zion.

There were winged
Carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song

Now how shall we sing the Lord"s song 
in a strange land

There were winged Carried us away in captivity
Requiering of us a song

Now how shall we sing the Lord"s song 
in a strange land

Let the words of our mouth
and the meditation 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
ye-eah we wept, when we remember Zion.

By the rivers of Babylon (By the rivers of Babylon)
there we sat down (there we sat down)

ye-eah we wept, (They need their God) 
when we remember Zion. (Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

By the rivers of Babylon (Rough bits of Babylon)
there we sat down (You hear the people cry) 

ye-eah we wept, (They need their God) 
when we remember Zion.
