We have to forward home
Babylon couldn't be our home
It must be somewhere else
We have to forward ourselves
Cause, we can't get no clothes to wear
We can't get no food to eat
We can't get a job to get bread
That's why we have to
We got to forward home, if we have to crawl
We got to forward home, if we have to run
There'll be no sadness, only gladness
When we reach the Promised Land
We got to leave this land
Find ourselves amongst our people
We all got to be free
Cause, we can't get no clothes to wear
We can't get no food to eat
We can't get a job to get bread
That's why we have to
We got to forward home, if we have to crawl
We got to forward home, if we have to run
We got to forward home, if we have to crawl
We got to forward home, if we have to run
(We got to)
Forward, forward, yeah
Yeah, my people
Forward out of Babylon
Yeah
Cause, we can't get no clothes to wear
We can't get no food to eat
We can't get a job to get bread
That's why we have to
We got to forward home, if we have to crawl
We got to forward home, if we have to run
We got to forward home
There'll be no sadness, only gladness
In the Promised Land
We got to
We got to leave this life
Find ourselves amongst our people
We all got to be free
Cause, we can't get no clothes to wear
We can't get no food to eat
We can't get a job to get bread
That's why we have to
We got to forward home, if we have to crawl
We got to forward home, if we have to run
We got to forward home, if we have to crawl
We got to forward home..
