VERSE
This IS the story of a young boy
Who wants to leave home and grow and rise ABOVE
He wants to know what's beyond the sea
And come back one day as A man...............................
He Said Mama !! Don't you ever cry
I'll COME back to you, just pray for your son
And he hits the road alone
Going straight to Babylon
CHORUS
Yes he's gone On his road to Babylon
Yes he's gone, alone
straight to Babylon
VERSE 2
After walking days and nights across the desert
PASSING OTHER countries and OTHER borders
He couldn't wait no he couldn't stand
FLEEING his miserable dirty poor land
One day he'll be back
But today he wants to get away........................
AND IF money runs the world
He'll go FOLLOW where it comes from
To feed his family
He's ready to sacrifice
And one day he'll be back
But now its time to BREAK away
CHORUS
Yes he's gone On his road to Babylon
Yes he's gone, alone
straight to Babylon
Bridge
And then got to Babylon
Attracted by the lights
He got lost
Forgetting why he came
Forgetting where he came from
He got lost in Babylon
CHORUS
Yes he's gone On his road to Babylon
He got lost, lost in Babylon
Yes he's gone, alone
straight to Babylon
