[Intro]

I burn all spies, and all traitors, and all sorcerers, and all confederates

Hail to the I, one of all I-ration, Most Mighty I

Haile Selassie I is the first

Yo, hey!

Yo, again

Judgement


[Chorus]

I say, the wicked man will have to fall

And all the righteous man will haffi stand tall

A the wrong man name dem go call

And now dem back against the wall, dem fall

I say, the wicked man will have to fall

And all the righteous man will haffi stand tall

A the wrong man name dem go call

And now dem back against the wall, dem fall


[Verse 1]

Long time me a warn dem and dem nevеr waan listen

Tell dem, no diss thе man weh get the blessing

Listen to the birds when you hear dem a sing

Listen to the leaves all on the tree limb

Watch all the fishes in the sea when dem swim

Every living thing haffi come hail the King

And all the water from the spring

Me sing

Hey


[Chorus]

Say, the wicked man will have to fall

And all the righteous man will haffi stand tall

A the wrong man name dem go call

And now dem back against the wall, dem fall

Say, the wicked man will have to fall

And all the righteous man will haffi stand tall

A the wrong man name dem go call

And now dem back against the wall, dem fall


[Verse 2]

The wicked man fall, but the righteous man stand

Yes, we haffi chant fi repatriation

Black government, we say, black redemption

Emperor Selassie I, the Almighty One

Yes, black people, full time you take a stand

Yes, me haffi burn Vatican

Then me sang, again


[Chorus]

All the wicked man will have to fall

And all the righteous man will haffi stand tall

A the wrong man name dem go call

And now dem back against the wall, dem fall

All the wicked man will have to fall

And all the righteous man will haffi stand tall

A the wrong man name dem go call

Now dem back against the wall, dem fall


[Verse 3]

Well, the righteous man, him must stand for real

Wicked man, dem ago fall pon dem steel

Dem a try eat the youth dem meal

Over your eyes, youth, you take off the veil

And see say King Selassie I is real

No man was worthy to buss up the seal

I wonder how Babylon did feel...

When Ras Tafari did buss the seal?

Now dem can't eat the Rastaman meal

Binghi man a trample dem under a heel

Again, again


[Chorus]

Say, the wicked man will have to fall

And all the righteous man will haffi stand tall

A the wrong man name dem go call

Now dem back against the wall, dem fall

Now dem back against the wall, dem fall


[Bridge]

Babylon will have to fall

Dem can't rise, not at all

Dem go bow to the house of Saul

To the righteous name, dem never call

So me sing again


[Chorus]

All the wicked man will have to fall

And all the righteous man will haffi stand tall

A the wrong man name dem go call

And now dem back against the wall, dem fall


[Outro]

So, me a warn dem and dem never waan listen

Tell dem, no try diss the man with the blessing

Listen to the birds when you hear dem a sing

Listen to the leaves all on the tree limb

Watch all the fishes in the sea when dem swim
