Roman Soldiers of Babylon Lyrics by Jacob Miller

Tenement Yard

0

[Intro]
See them coming, plain in clothes, plain in clothes
[Chorus]
Don't give up, don't give up
The Roman soldiers of Babylon are here to fight us
Don't give up, don't give up
The Roman soldiers of Babylon are right behind us
[Verse 1]
Comin' from the North with their pockets full of ammunition
Tryin' to turn dreadlocks into politician
Marcus Garvey did say
Things like this would happen in this day (Oh yes)
[Chorus]
So don't give up, don't give up
The Roman soldiers of Babylon are here to fight us
See dem comin'!
So don't give up, don't give up
The Roman soldiers of Babylon are here to fight us (Look out)
They're in plain clothes
[Verse 2]
They're comin', tryin' fight Rastafari
But they can't beat the wisdom of Selassie I
Rastafari, Rastafari will blow, will blow them away
Rastafari will blow them away
Yes, *Scatting*
[Outro]
So don't give up, don't give up
The Roman soldiers of Babylon are here to fight us
