The bird, the eagle, and the dragon and the bear

Well clear, chuh
Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, oooo
Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, oooo
Burn down the walls of Babylon
Redemption, emancipation, judgement
Moving on, trodding on, trodding on, trod along
Well, so many years down inna Babylon
But rasta keep movin' on
Movin' on, movin' on, movin' on
So many years down inna Babylon
But rasta keep movin' on, judgement
Well, they playin' game with my mind
Say with your war and your evilous crime
Well I've been warning, dem time after time
And still none of dem, dem never pay me no mind
But I know if I seek, then I know I will find
And the mountain is steep, but I still have to climb
I'm going home on seven miles of Black Star Line
I see Babylon dem all a run out of time
Material all a run out pon dem, genocidal mi-i-i-i-ind
Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, oooo
Break dem, burn dem, teach dem, show dem
Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, oooo
Bless their soul, Most High, well!
So many years down inna Babylon
But rasta keep movin' on
Movin' on, movin' on, movin' on
So many years down inna Babylon
But rasta keep movin' on, judgement
Well, moving out ah Babylon no more we nah go tarry
We nah go linger ina dem Babylon alley
Move to the hills man and move to the valley
Man a go plant up dem collie
Well, long time Babylon a teach us pure folly
Just true dem want us to silly
But, the whole a dem going go down inna the gully
Bingi man me see it practically
Well!
Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, oooo
Tell dem, show dem
Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, oooo
So many years down inna Babylon
But rasta keep movin' on
Movin' on, movin' on, movin' on
So many years down inna Babylon
But rasta keep movin' on, judgement
Well, moving out a Babylon no more we nah go Rome
Bruck up dem scissors and we bruck up dem comb
Emperor Selassie-I, dem try to dethrone
No man was worthy to sit in his throne
Nuff a dem touch it and dry out to bone
The bear, the eagle and the dragon, dem have fi bow down
Well I-thiopia I know is I home
Well I say soon I'm coming home
Well
Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, oooo
Teach them, show them, bless them, uplift them
Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, Shoobie-doo-oo, oooo
