Testo: Peter Broggs. RAS Portraits: Peter Broggs. 400 Years.


It's more than 400 years,
It's more than 400 years
And that's a long time now.
Yes, that's a long time now.
It's more than 400 years,
It's more than 400 years
And that's a long time now.
Yes, that's a long time now.

Babylon carry us away in captivity,
Off us down here in bondage
Robber a well from a horse,
Now them trying to steal I culture,
Yes, them trying to steal I culture.

It's more than 400 years,
It's more than 400 years
And that's a long time now.
Yes, that's a long time now.
It's more than 400 years,
It's more than 400 years
And that's a long time now.
Yes, that's a long time now.

They whip us to take them slavery name,
They whip us so hard we feel the pain.
And everything go wrong, they give us the blame.
Babylon still keep on playing their dirty games.

It's more than 400 years,
It's more than 400 years
And that's a long time now.
Yes, that's a long time now.
It's more than 400 years,
It's more than 400 years
And that's a long time now.
Yes, that's a long time now.

Such a very long time
Such a long time now.

They whip us to take them slavery name,
They whip us so hard we feel the pain.
And everything go wrong, they give us the blame.
Babylon still keep on playing their dirty games.

It's more than 400 years,
It's more than 400 years
And that's a long time now.
Yes, that's a long time now.
It's more than 400 years,
It's more than 400 years
And that's a long time now.
Yes, that's a long time now
