Going The Wrong Way
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Jah Jah children following Babylon, day by day
Jah Jah children following wicked men, going astray
Jah Jah children following Babylon, going the wrong way
Jah Jah children following Babylon, going astray
What you gonna do when the Father stretch forth his hands
To lead all his children, to the promised land?
You gonna run behind the rocks to hide, but there will be no rocks
The rocks and the trees want a hiding place for themselves
Oh, well..
(..)
What you gonna do when the Father stretch forth his hands
To lead all his children a forward, to the promised land?
You gonna run behind the rocks to hide, but there will be no rocks
'Cause the rocks and the trees want a hiding place for themselves
Jah Jah children following Babylon, day by day
Jah Jah children following wicked men, going astray
Jah Jah children following Babylon, going the wrong way
You better know yourself black children, 'cause we are one
Oh, Jah Jah children, well.. ooh, ah, know yourself
Know yourself, know yourself, oh well
