Wyclef Jean
"Rivers Of Babylon / Yele"

By the rivers of Babylon,
there we sat down
yeah we wept,
when we remembered Zion.
By the rivers of Babylon,
there we sat down
yeah we wept,
when we remembered Zion.
When the wicked
Carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
Now how shall we sing the lord's song
in a strange land
When the wicked
Carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
Now how shall we sing the lord's song
in a strange land

Let the words of our mouths
and the meditations of our hearts
be acceptable in thy sight here tonight

and the meditations of our hearts
be acceptable in thy sight here tonight

Yo, yo, I wanna give a shout out to the world
This is Wyclef, cold-chillin' out here with my pina-colada
Yeah, baby I'm in the islands, cold relaxin'
Right about now the carnival's gonna change phases

If you got your ticket, man, you're allowed to come with me
Yo, for right now I'm gonna chill in the beach
Check out the pretty girls layin' back, you know how we do, playa yo
I'm out here in the sun, baby, it's all good
