verse
Listen close to hooves you hear
Are thunders coming dread
John the Revelator's dream
They kneeled and sealed a kiss
Plagues and pain and fiery rain
And blaspheme on his lips
chorus
Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
A pale rider and his horses sing
Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast
Bears the mark of Babylon to be
chorus
Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
A pale rider and his horses sing
Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast
Bears the mark of Babylon to be
bridge
And I stood upon the sand of the sea
And saw a beast rise out of the sea
Having ten horns and seven heads
Who is like unto the beast?
Given his mouth great things to speak
Let him hear, let him hear
chorus
Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
A pale rider and his horses sing
Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast
Bears the mark of Babylon to be
Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
A pale rider and his horses sing
