Train To Rhodesia

Big Youth

[Verse 1]
Is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?
Is there always gonna be one more bridge to cross?
Black people, do we really have to fight?
Black people, do we really-really have to fight?
You see, where I live, in the heart of the city
In the ghetto of the city, baby
All I can see is confusion, ya
Everyday all I can see is a brother against a brother
You see a brother against a brother, I would tell you (Yeah)
You just a brother, just a brother, I would say

[Chorus]
Too much confusion
I say, I can't take it no more in a Babylon
Say, I’ll be going out of Babylon (Huh)
An' I'll be going out of Babylon
I’ll be going on the first train tomorrow
There I'll feel no pain or sorrow
I'll be going on the first train tomorrow
No need no baggage an' no ticket, I would say (Ye-yeah)
No need no baggage an' no ticket, I would tell you
All you got to do is to be clean, ya

[Verse 2]
Weakheart, 'move ya!
Weakheart, gone ya!
When the righteous be glad an' the righteous can, ya
Yeah, can't stand a brother against a brother
Let di brother try to live with one another (Yeah)
’Cause every brother has a brother
Brothers, all you got to do is understand each other
That we live for no fuss or fight

[Chorus]
I will be going on the first train tomorrow
Got no need for no sorrow
Need no baggage an’ no ticket, I would say
Need no baggage an' no ticket, I would tell you
I’ll be going, I'll be going, I'll be going, I'll be going
On the first train tomorrow (Yeah)
Can’t take it no more in a Babylon, as I would say
In a Babylon, in a Babylon

[Verse 3]
Weakhearts, remove ya!
Well out of sight an' out of mind
'Cause 'move ya, weakheart, 'move ya ('Move)
Weakheart, gone ya, weakheart, what I say man?
Di idren walk so, hey, di idren talk so
Sight him a go so
Di dread, love an' unity, baby
If you want to tell me to rejoice
Dread, dem nat up, irie-irie-irie-irie high

[Outro]
Going on the first train tomorrow (Yeah)
One love an' black harmony
