Man will fly away home One bright morning when my work is over "Babylon, you throne gone down, gone down Babylon, you throne gone down" I say fly away home to Zion (fly away home) Hear the words of the Rastaman say Said I hear the words of the Iyaman say

(Playing with the boys) Playing, playing with the boys After chasing sunsets One of life's simple joys Bodies working overtime Staying, playing with the boys I'd say it was the right time To walk away

I'm gonna peel you away Now as I begin To wash you off my skin Cause you're not right within I say goodbye When I found out this love's undone I was like a gun Sure as it was over Felt like nothing good could come

I bet you knew right away It's all over town that Yeah I feel like a force of nature Could make you sing like a bird released You know it's buried beneath your feet Are coming to take you in For smoking all my stash But burning all my cash The sun's

Standing at the end of The final masquerade The light on the horizon Was brighter yesterday Shadows floating over Skies begin to fade You said it was forever But then it slipped away Tearing me apart

I'll ask the sun to shine away from you today so you can cry (If that's what you want) I'll ask the clouds to bring the rain for you today so you can cry (If that's what you want alright) Oh If that's what you want alright So it's over He's with someone

Sticky sweet She's so sticky so sticky so sticky She's so sticky so sticky She's so stick sweet Break it up, shake it up, give it up, break it up When she calls me up My voice it starts to shake She says come right over Over right away

We've talked it over and over And we know it's not right We should stay away forever But we're lonesome each night Yes we stay away for a while But we know in the end We'll invite them over again I know why you're lonely And I know why you're blue

I'll fly away I'll fly away, oh glory I'll fly away in the morning When I die, Hallelujah by and by Some bright morning when this life is over To that home on God's celestial shore When the shadows of this life have gone Like a bird from these prison

And we rely on each other, ah ha From one lover to another, ah ha Islands in the stream That is what we are No one in between How can we be wrong Sail away with me To another world Oh baby alright
