Boney M - Rivers of Babylon 1978

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

(Instrumental)

Yeah Yeah Yeah
Let the words of our mouth
and the meditations of our hearts
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.

(Instrumental)

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,
there we sat down
ye-eah we

I was no where around, not even in the making when they sung this song, but I have an appreciation for good music when I hear it. With that said, I absolutely LOVE this song!!!

I was just on a walk telling a friend about Boney M. Like most people, had never heard of them. If you've never heard Boney M's Christmas songs, check them out, they're awesome (2 days til Christmas). Despite this song not being associated with the yule tide, I had to listen to it as it's one of my favorites from their work decades ago (before my time; but still great today).
