River of Babylon
  
  By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
  Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.
  
  By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
  Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.
  
  When the wicked
  Carried us away in captivity
  Required from us a song
  Now how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land
  
  When the wicked
  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 meditations 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 remembered Zion.
  
  By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
  Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.
  
  By the rivers of Babylon (dark tears of Babylon)
  There we sat down (You got to sing a song)
  Ye-eah we wept, (Sing a song of love)
  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 that)
  When we remember Zion. (Ooh, have the power)
