Babylon
Now, when I woke up this mornin'
Boys, I was gone
I said, my girlfriend asked me
Where do I come from
I put my face up tn the mirror
Just to clock my wheres
First thing I know
I gotta get outta here, get outta here
And back to Babylon
I gotta get away to Babylon
I can't stay, Babylon
I'm havin' too-too-too much fun, Babylon
I gotta run, I can't look back
I gotta get back
I get down to Babylon
I'm goin' to Babylon, boys
Well, I was just drivin' out tonight, boys
You know that I was gone
The coppers asked me
Where do I come from
One looks at my cards
The other checks my ID
With this junk on my face
It's so easy to see, easy to see
That I'm from Babylon
I gotta get away to Babylon
I can't stay, Babylon
I'm havin' too-too-too much fun, Babylon
I gotta run, I can't look back
I gotta get back, gotta get down
I gotta get down and gotta come on down to Babylon
Back to Babylon, boys
Well, a Babylon girl said she ain't got no past
The Babylon girls, she's gotta talk so fast
The Babylon men's gotta be a boy
With the Babylon girls out lookin' for a joy
Massagin' all day, but she's thinkin' 'bout you daddy
And thinkin' 'bout you daddy 'til they all go away
Now when she's up there dancin', she's just tryin' to make a buck
Gotta grind it through the night, she gotta give it all the luck
Of Babylon
Well, I gotta get away to Babylon
Beggin' I can't stay, 'cause in Babylon
I'm havin' too-too-too much fun, Babylon
I gotta run, I can't look back
I gotta get back, I get down
I gotta get down and gotta come on down to Babylon
Back to Babylon, boys
Babylon
Record that
Boys, I was gone
I said, my girlfriend asked me
Where do I come from
I put my face up tn the mirror
Just to clock my wheres
First thing I know
I gotta get outta here, get outta here
And back to Babylon
I gotta get away to Babylon
I can't stay, Babylon
I'm havin' too-too-too much fun, Babylon
I gotta run, I can't look back
I gotta get back
I get down to Babylon
I'm goin' to Babylon, boys
Well, I was just drivin' out tonight, boys
You know that I was gone
The coppers asked me
Where do I come from
One looks at my cards
The other checks my ID
With this junk on my face
It's so easy to see, easy to see
That I'm from Babylon
I gotta get away to Babylon
I can't stay, Babylon
I'm havin' too-too-too much fun, Babylon
I gotta run, I can't look back
I gotta get back, gotta get down
I gotta get down and gotta come on down to Babylon
Back to Babylon, boys
Well, a Babylon girl said she ain't got no past
The Babylon girls, she's gotta talk so fast

I'm havin' too-too-too much fun, Babylon
I gotta run, I can't look back
I gotta get back, I get down
I gotta get down and gotta come on down to Babylon
Back to Babylon, boys
Babylon
Record that
