Lyrics

I wouldn't like to be there, no
I wouldn't like to be, no
Inna this number
It's a familiar number, kind of people
Inna this number
It's a familiar number, kind of people
Eight million careless Ethiopians
Eight million careless Ethiopians
Shall go down the Babylon, let me tell you
Careless Ethiopian people
I, I wouldn't like to be there
I, I wouldn't like to be, yeah
Inna this number
It's a peculiar number, kind of people
Inna this number
It's a peculiar number, kind of people
There is no speech or language
Where their voice is not heard, no
Day after day uttereth speech
Night unto night showeth knowledge
And let me tell you now
I, I wouldn't like to be there
I, I wouldn't like to be, yeah
Inna this number
It's a peculiar number, kind of people
Inna this number
It's a peculiar number, kind of people
One hundred and fourty-four thousand
These are they that were sealed
With the seal of the living God, yeah
These are they who have been
Through great tribulation
That's why I'm telling you
I, I wouldn't like to be there, yeah
I, I wouldn't like to be, yeah
Inna this number
It's a peculiar number
Inna this number
It's a peculiar number, kind of people
Inna this number
It's a peculiar number, oh yeah
Inna this number
It's a peculiar number
