Lost in Babylon Songtext
von Anwar

This is the story of a young boy
Who wants to leave home and grow and rise abroad
He wants to know what′s beyond the sea
And come back one day as a man.
He said Mama, don't you ever cry
I′ll come back to you, just pray for your son
And he hits the road alone
Going straight to Babylon.

Yes he's gone on his road to Babylon

Yes he's gone, alone

Straight to Babylon.

After walking days and nights across the desert
Passing other countries and other borders
He couldn′t wait no he couldn′t stand
Fleeing his miserable dirty poor land.

One day he'll be back
But today he wants to get away.
And if money runs the world
He′ll go follow where it comes from


To feed his family
He's ready to sacrifice.

And one day he′ll be back

But now its time to break away

Yes he's gone on his road to Babylon

Yes he′s gone on his road to Babylon
Yes he's gone, alone, alone, alone
Straight to Babylon.

And then got to Babylon

Attracted by the lights
He got lost
Forgetting why he came
Forgetting where he came from

He got lost in Babylon
Lost in Babylon
Lost in Babylon
Lost in Babylon.


He got lost,
He got lost,
Lost in Babylon.
He got lost,
Alone, alone in Babylon.
He got lost,
He got lost,
He got lost,
Alone in Babylon.
Alone in Babylon,
Alone in Babylon,
Alone in Babylon,
Alone in Babylon.
He got lost,
Lost in Babylon,
Alone in Babylon,
He got lost.
