Goodness gracious Lord have mercy
The devil's on the move and the world's gone crazy (yeah)
Police in the streets shootin' down black babies
Glory hallelujah for the young and the innocent (yeah)
Run fo' yo life, the time has come
For us to strengthen our defenses
Ya, Babylon, you know we don't belong
Oh, and we'll be goin' back to Zion
Soon

[Chorus]
We're leavin' Babylon, and goin' back to Zion
Leavin' Babylon yo, and goin' back to Zion, (hear me now)

Oh Jah Jah, oh Jah Jah, oh Jah Jah, oh Jah Jah, yeah

Goodness gracious Lord have mercy
Ya know I neva eva eva let the devil get the best of me (yeah)
I saw the preacher take the nickels from the welfare babies
Go, go daddy, go Jah for the young and the innocent (yeah, yeah)
Protect the right, reject the wrong, it offends my senses
Yea Babylon, you know it won't be long (woah)
Till we be goin' back to Zion
Soon
