JAH Boogie's version of Tony Rebel's "Chant Down Babylon" Riddim
lyrics
1st Verse:
Everyone needs someone to count on.
Everyone needs a friend.
Everyone needs someone to run to.
When the supply turns thin.
We all have a gift to offer
We all have talent
We all have the same road to travel
We must find the confidence
Chorus:
Yes my friend you can count on me when the chips are down.
I do my best to comfort thee - I'll always hold you down.
2nd Verse:
Everyone wants a new beginning.
Everyone needs a chance.
Everyone has a life that they're living.
Everyone needs a plan.
Everyone has the time that they're spending
And you do the best you can
Everyone has to do their corner bending
Because we all must expand
(Chorus)
3rd Verse:
Everyone has a story that they're telling.
And if we listen we will hear.
Everyone has a product that they're selling.
Yet we all don't buy in.
We all have something we can offer
Yes we all have a gift
We all have to learn from one another
And this we all must admit
(Chorus)
Everyone needs someone to count on.
Everyone needs a friend.
Everyone needs someone to run to.
When the supply turns thin.
We all have a gift to offer
We all have talent
We all have the same road to travel
We must find the confidence
Chorus:
Yes my friend you can count on me when the chips are down.
I do my best to comfort thee - I'll always hold you down.
2nd Verse:
Everyone wants a new beginning.
Everyone needs a chance.
Everyone has a life that they're living.
Everyone needs a plan.
Everyone has the time that they're spending
And you do the best you can
Everyone has to do their corner bending
Because we all must expand
(Chorus)
3rd Verse:
Everyone has a story that they're telling.
And if we listen we will hear.
Everyone has a product that they're selling.
Yet we all don't buy in.
We all have something we can offer
Yes we all have a gift
We all have to learn from one another
And this we all must admit
(Chorus)
