Babylon Town 12.22.08 315 C-Dm F-G-Am .Am-G-F (Dm-G7)

Did you ever go down to Babylon Town?
Rasta dont skank or chuck around downtown.
Dont you clown or frown within Babylon Town.
Dont bang a sound for Babylon Town.
Dont weep or wail when Babylon fails.

First, them gwan eat you alive just as soon I n I pon arrive.
Keep your blessed eyes on Jah; the city life is strife (Skiffle Ska Ska).
Poison a mans good wife.

Dont you go down to Babylon Town.
Rasta will be schooled by the man and his rules.
The devils own illusion is a mind in confusion.
To keep you held down pon Babylon Town.
Dont weep or wail when Babylon fails.

Next, Id rather watch the corn grow in Zion.
Then see the heathen Babylon frying.
While Babylon chase almighty dollar.
Rasta man him face Almighty Father.

Dont you go down to Babylon Town?
Rasta dont skank or chuck around downtown.
Dont you clown or frown within Babylon Town.
Dont bang a sound in Babylon Town
Dont weep or wail when Babylon fails.

Last, the youth of today they be dying.
Babylon man laughs he nah crying.
Soon come Rasta man arising.
Jah loves a Mystical Horizon.

Dont you go down to Babylon Town.
Rasta dont skank or chuck around downtown.
Dont you clown or frown within Babylon Town.
Dont bang a sound in Babylon Town
Dont weep or wail when Babylon fails. Babylon Town, Babylon Town.

Had to hear it just a few more times... hey, with some minor tweaks & perhaps some kettle drums you'd have a number 1 groove hit.
