Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.

(repeat and fade)
 By the rivers of Babylon (dark tears of Babylon)
 There we sat down (you got to sing a song)
 Ye-eah we wept, (sing a song of love)
 When we remember Zion. (yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

By the rivers of Babylon (rough bits of Babylon)
 There we sat down (you hear the people cry)
 Ye-eah we wept, (they need their god)
 When we remember Zion. (ooh, have the power)

By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
 Ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion
