Lyrics Raggae Down Babylon - Jimmy Cliff
A
girl
walked
up
to
me
one
day.
This
is
what
she
had
to
say.
She
said:
"Reggae
makes
me
feel
all
right.
I
want
to
do
it
with
you
tonight."
So
we
took
a
stroll
out
on
the
town.
Look
for
the
hottest
spot
around.
Then
we
started
jammin'
to
the
sound.
We
ram
it
and
we
jam
it
And
we
reggae
and
we
reggae
them
down.
Oh!
Reggae
down
Babylon!
(Reggae
down
Babylon!)
Reggae
down
apartheid!
(Reggae
down
apartheid!)
Reggae
down
Babylon!
(Reggae
down
Babylon!)
Reggae
down
apartheid!
(Reggae
down
apartheid!)
Do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
She
said:
"I
bet
they
think
they
have
seen
the
end.
While
we
were
coasting
around
the
bend.
Checking
on
some
friends
we
know."
She
said:
"Come
let's
go
to
a
go
go!"
So
we
took
a
stroll
out
on
the
town.
Found
the
hottest
spot
there's
around.
Then
we
start
to
reggae
to
the
sound.
We
ram
it
and
we
jam
it
And
we???
when
we
reggae
them
down.
Oh!
Reggae
down
Babylon!
(Reggae
down
Babylon!)
Reggae
down
apartheid!
(Reggae
down
apartheid!)
Reggae
down
Babylon!
(Reggae
down
Babylon!)
Reggae
down
apartheid!
(Reggae
down
apartheid!)
Do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
Hey!
Reggae
down
Babylon!
(Reggae
down
Babylon!)
Reggae
down
apartheid!
(Reggae
down
apartheid!)
Reggae
down
Babylon!
(Reggae
down
Babylon!)
Reggae
down
apartheid!
(Reggae
down
apartheid!)
Do
it
again!
A
make
we
do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
She
said:
"I
bet
they
think
they
have
control
Over
the
people
with
rock
and
roll."
I
said:
"I
bet
they
think
they
can
hide
the
truth.
Holding
the
people
from
their
roots."
When
they
think
they
have
it
all
their
way.
Here
we
come
and
it's
a
brand
new
day.
Now
they
better
listen
what
we
have
to
say.
You
should
a
see
us
When
we
start
to
reggae
them
down.
Oh!
We
reggae
down
Babylon!
(Reggae
down
Babylon!)
Reggae
down
apartheid!
(Reggae
down
apartheid!)
Reggae
down
Babylon!
(Reggae
down
Babylon!)
Reggae
down
apartheid!
(Reggae
down
apartheid!)
Do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
Do
it
again!
Hey!
Reggae
down
Babylon!
(Reggae
down
Babylon!)
Reggae

Reggae
