Lyrics

Look how long we been down here in Babylon
The money we work is never enough
The little we got they want to take it away
Each and everyday you can hear I say
Me wan’ go home a me yard
Me wan’ go home a me yard
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Oh! Jah Rastaman
We got to keep on fighting against society
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Some day soon they got to set us free
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Oh! Jah Rastaman
People used to laugh and call us crazy
People used to tell us that we’re lazy
But when will I be paid
For the works that I’ve done
The works that I’ve done
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Oh! Jah Rastaman
When will I be paid
For the works I’ve done
The works I’ve done
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Look how long we been down here in Babylon
The money we work is never enough
The little we got they want to take it away
Each and everyday you can hear I say
Me wan’ go home a me yard
Me wan’ go home a me yard
Me wan’ fi go a me yard
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Oh! Jah Rastaman
We got to keep on fighting against society
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Some day soon they got to set us free
Oh! Jah Rastaman
Oh! Jah Rastaman
