Thread Name: Lyr Req: River of Babylon
Subject: RE: Looking for lyrics: river of babylon
Don McLean recorded this song some years ago. As I recall the lyrics: By the waters, the waters of Babylon We lay down and wept, and wept, for thee, Zion. We remember thee, remember thee, remember thee, Zion.

That's it; he then sings it in a "round" (like "Row, row, row your boat") so that the lyrics get repeated about 4 times.
