I see the wall has fallen down -- time I was on my way
And still, they might decide -- to let some peasants stay
But now it's time for me to go -- their orders we must obey
The Babylonians came -- and we're their slaves
And we're heading that way
Ah, the town I love's on fire
But I know I've got one place I've got to move

Babylon
Now's their time, we're down and out
Their kingdom's strong
They're gonna rule the world, they got their flags unfurled
On my way
We've been displaced -- sin leads to disgrace
Babylon
The prophecies are all complete

It's not the time to sign a truce
The time has come to be gone
And for our selfish ways and countless crimes
We're bound for Babylon

Babylon
And now our crimes have found us out
Their kingdom's strong
They're gonna rule the world, they got their flags unfurled
On my way
We've been displaced -- sin leads to disgrace
We're goin' to Babylon
Because the prophecies are all complete

I can tell you know why

Jeremiah detailed that on fancy scrolls
But freedom died slow here
'Cause years ago Isaiah foretold and Habakkuk did declare
Plus in the darkest depths of Moses, I've read it also there
But Solomon and his evil wives
Messed up the blissful way we were, were, were, yeah
There ain't nothing I can do now
I guess I'll be gone

Babylon
And what a shame
Sing my song
I've got a lamentation
I'm goin' to Babylon
Because of things done wrong
I'm gonna work all day
They're gonna rule the world
(Babylon) Baby, baby, yeah
Do do do do do (baby) my baby (Babylon baby)
Uh-do do do do do -- do-de do-de do-de do-de do-de do-oo
I can't stop to breathe and it's so hard
But there's no time to think about complaining I really must depart
I gotta keep searchin' for my family
(Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby)
I gotta keep a-searchin' for my family
(Mmm my my my my my my my family )
Yayy yeah-eh
(My my my my my my baby)
Uh yeah-eh-yeah, uh yeah-eh-yeah
Yay-a-yay, yay-a-yay, yay-a-yay, yay-a-yay, yay-a-yay
Ooooh my my my my -- my my -- my my
I can't fight those troopers
I guess I'm gonna do what they say, but I
I guess that's my future
(Keep travelin', baby)
Uh -- uh -- yeah!
(A-keep travelin', baby)
Keep -- keep -- keep
