Not even the dog
That pissed against the walls of Babylon
Shall escape I wrath!
Jah strong and mighty in battle
Cramp weak heart!

Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning
But there's no water

Fire, fire
Fire, fire
Fire, fire
But there's no water

All dem a jump and reel
All dem a jump and reel
If dem crawl like snail
Rasta gwaan clip them tail

Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning
Babylon's burning
But there's no water

Fire, fire
Fire, fire
Fire, fire
But there's no water

(.)

I say, not even the dog
That pissed against the walls of Babylon
Shall escape Jah wrath!
Jah strong!
Quake me, God, quake, I say!
Quake!

Blood and fire
Blood and fire
Blood and fire
But there's no water
Who you gonna run to now?
Who you gonna run to now, bwoy?
Who you gonna run to now
When I and I hold you?

Fire, fire - fire
Fire, fire - fire
Fire, fire.
