Free Jah Jah Children by Sugar Minott Lyrics

[Intro]
Free them, Babylon, free Jah children

[Verse 1]
It's been a long time we down here in Babylon
We want to go home now
Free Jah Jah children, free Jah Jah children
So long we slaving in Babylon
We want to go home
Free Jah Jah children, free Jah Jah children

[Chorus]
Free them from poverty, free them from misery
Free them! Won't you free them?
Free them from this kind of life
They want to live otherwise
Free them! Why won't you free them?

[Verse 2]
We got to pay the price
We got to sacrifice, for our liberty
We want to be free, oh
Natty Dreadlocks want to be free
We got to pay the price
We got to sacrifice, for our liberty
We want to be free, Rastafari want to be free
[Bridge]
Free them from misery, free them from poverty
Free us! Why won't you free us? Oh yes

[Verse 3]
Freedom from this kind of life
We want to live otherwise
Free us! Why won't you free us?
Free us, from out of captivity
Babylon, won't you, free us?

[Verse 2 Repeated]

[Bridge]
Free them from poverty, free them from misery
Free us! Why won't you free us?
Free dem inna South Africa!
Free us in Jamaica!
Free us! Won't you free us?

[Verse 1 Repeated]
It's been a long time we down here in Babylon
We want to go home now
Free Jah Jah children, free Jah Jah children
So long we been down in Babylon
We want to go home! We got to go home!
Free us! Free us! Free us!
