[Intro]
Wala, woah
Wala, wala, woah

Hey, Mr. Babylon
Take the cuff from off my hand
Hey, Mr. Babylon
Said, I'm an hopeful living rastaman

I was just trodding in from the woods
With my pocket filled with [?] goods
Now suddenly guess what happened to me?
Said, I rode into your state of emergency, no
So

Hey, Mr. Babylon
Look what you've done to me
Hey, Mr. Babylon
Now, [?] among all my enemies
Hey, Mr. Babylon
Take the cuff from off the brethren arm
Hey, Mr. Babylon
Cause I'm an hopeful living rastaman

Wala, woah
Wala, wala, woah
I was just trodding in from the woods, lord
With my pocket filled with [?] goods
But suddenly guess what happened to me?
Said, I rode into your state of emergency, no
So

Hey, Mr. Babylon
Take the cuff from off my hands
Hey, Mr. Babylon
Said, I'm an hopeful living rastaman
Hey, Mr. Babylon
Take the cuff from off the brethren's arm
Hey, Mr. Babylon
Said he's a hopeful living dreadlocks man

Wala, woah
Wala, wala, woah
