By the rivers of babylon, there we sat down<br>Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered zion.<br><br>By the rivers of babylon, there we sat down<br>Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered zion.<br><br>When the wicked<br>Carried us away in captivity<br>Required from us a song<br>Now how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land<br><br>When the wicked<br>Carried us away in captivity<br>Requiering of us a song<br>Now how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land<br><br>Let the words of our mouth and the meditations of our heart<br>Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight<br><br>Let the words of our mouth and the meditation of our hearts<br>Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight<br><br>By the rivers of babylon, there we sat down<br>Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered zion.<br><br>By the rivers of babylon, there we sat down<br>Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered zion.<br><br>By the rivers of babylon (dark tears of babylon)<br>There we sat down (you got to sing a song)<br>Ye-eah we wept, (sing a song of love)<br>When we remember zion. (yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)<br><br>By the rivers of babylon (rough bits of babylon)<br>There we sat down (you hear the people cry)<br>Ye-eah we wept, (they need their God)<br>When we remember zion. (ooh, have the power)
