Back in Babylon by Babylon A.D. Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1989

Man, where the fuck am I at?
City lights, 'til the dawn
Hopeless junkies out in my backyard
The city of sin
Yeah!
C'mon!

Just got back today to the city of sin
They say the apple and the snake is how it all began
Living on the edge ain't paradise
Waking up dead on the east side
Sixth and Avenue B veiled in mystery

And now I'm back in Babylon
Walking on a thin line in Babylon

Cold steel bricks, vagabond rats
Hell's Kitchen at midnight, you know you better learn fast
Living on the edge ain't paradise
Waking up dead on the west side
Forty-second and Tenth ain't the best place to be
And now, I'm back in Babylon, whoo!
Walking on a thin line in Babylon

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm back!

Yeah, I'm back in Babylon
I'm back in Babylon

Living on the edge of paradise
Waking up dead, Manhattan suicide
Sweet Lady Liberty, such a sore sight to see

And now I'm back in Babylon
Walking on a thin line in Babylon
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Looks like I'm back in Babylon
Whoa, walking on a thin line in Babylon

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm back!
Said I'm back
I'm back
I'm back, yeah!
In the city of sin, yeah
