I don't have a red, red cent to pay I've got my home to reach and I will reach it one day
'Cause we were taken away by force Scattered all around the Caribbean coast
No, not a cent to pay Yes, I've got to reach home one day
Yes, it was four hundred years ago They took us from our homeland, as you should know
Yes, with the slave chains still on our hands They leave us here to work on their plantations
But nyah-man say No, not a cent to pay Yes, I've got to reach home one day
Zion, Zion, Zion, Zion high Zion, Zion, Zion, Zion Zion, Zion, Zion, Zion high Zion, Zion, Zion
I-man get a call and a Zion call I-man get this call it said "Babylon you're falling" I-man get a call and a Zion call I-man get this call it said "Babylon you're falling"
No, oh no, not a cent to pay Yes, I've got to reach home one day
Zion, Zion, Zion-lion, Zion high Zion, Zion-lion, Zion, Zion Zion, Zion, Zion-lion, Zion, Zion high Zion, Zion, Lion!
