Hi,

Here is the Boney M version. I'm sitting here grooving along in my boob tube and satin drainpipes.

RIVERS OF BABYLON
(Dowe, Mcaughton, Reyan, Farian / MCPS / George Gluck Music Ltd / Blue Mountain Music from the CD Boney M "The best of"

(1:)
By the rivers of Babylon, where we sat down,
There we wept when we remembered Zion.
By the rivers of Babylon, where we sat down,
There we wept when we remembered Zion.

Let the wicked carry us away in captivity,
Requiring of us a song,
How can we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?

INSTRUMENTAL + STEEL DRUMS

So, let the words of our mouth
And the meditations of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight.
Here tonight

So, let the words of our mouth
And the meditations of our heart
