Sublime, "Rivers Of Babylon"
Misheard Lyrics:
By the rivers of Babylon
where he sat down
and where he went
when he remembered Cy Young
oh for the wicked, carry us away captivity
require from us a song
how can we, sinking of a song
in a strange land
so let the words of our mouth
and the meditation of our hearts
be acceptable in thy sight
over eyes
where he sat down
and where he went
when he remembered Cy Young
oh for the wicked, carry us away captivity
require from us a song
how can we, sinking of a song
in a strange land
so let the words of our mouth
and the meditation of our hearts
be acceptable in thy sight
over eyes
Original Lyrics:
By the rivers of Babylon,
Where he sat down,
And there he wept
When he remembered Zion.
Oh, the wicked carried us away in captivity,
Required from us a song,
How can we sing King Alpha's song
In a strange land?
So, let the words of our mouth
And the meditations of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight.
Oh, verai!
Where he sat down,
And there he wept
When he remembered Zion.
Oh, the wicked carried us away in captivity,
Required from us a song,
How can we sing King Alpha's song
In a strange land?
So, let the words of our mouth
And the meditations of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight.
Oh, verai!
