New York Dolls – Babylon Lyrics

Artist: New York Dolls
Song: Babylon

Come on, boys
When I woke up this mornin’, boys, I was gone
My girlfriend asked me where do I come from
Put my face up in the mirror just to clock my wares

First thing I know, I gotta get outta here
(On back to) Babylon
(I gotta get away to) Babylon
(So I can’t stay) Babylon

(‘Cause it’s too much fun) Babylon
I gotta run, I can’t look back
I gotta get back, I get down to Babylon
(I’m goin’ to Babylon)

I was drivin’ out tonight and, boys, I was gone
The coppers asked me where do I come from
One looks at my cards, one checks my ID
With this junk on my face, it’s easy to see

(I’m from) Babylon
(I gotta get away to) Babylon
(I can’t stay) Babylon
(Havin’ too much fun) Babylon

I gotta run, I can’t look back
I gotta get back, I gotta get down
I gotta get around to Babylon
Let’s go to Babylon, boys

Two girls for every boy
Well, a Babylon girl ain’t got no past
The Babylon girl gots to talk so fast
The Babylon men gonna be a boy

With the Babylon girl, out lookin’ for a joy
(In) Babylon
(I gotta get away to) Babylon
(Beggin’, I can’t stay) Babylon

(Havin’ too much fun) Babylon
I gotta run, I can’t look back
I gotta get back, I get down
I won’t be safe, child, nobody’s safe ’til they’re in Babylon

(I’m goin’ to Babylon)
She’s been massagin’ all day, but shes thinkin’ ’bout you, daddy
Thinkin’ ’bout you, daddy, ’til they all go away
And when she up there dancin’, she’s just tryin’ make a buck

Tryin’ make some money, gonna give you all a look
(I’m from) Babylon
(I gotta get away to) Babylon
(I can’t stay) Babylon

(Havin’ too much fun) Babylon
(I’m from) Babylon
(I gotta get away to) Babylon
(I can’t stay) Babylon

(Havin’ too too too much fun) Babylon
I gotta run, I can’t look back
I gotta get back, I gotta get down
I won’t be safe, I won’t be free ’til I hit Babylon

(I’m goin’ to Babylon)
