Mike Love - Movin' On текст песни

I've had enough of this fooling' around
Being knocked down and playing the clown
This city life was never meant for me

I've got to get back to the country

So I'm going to spread my wings
fly away,
I can't stay another day
I'm leaving out of Babylon
I'm movin' on

Come rally all my people it's time we move
Oh if you're stuck you got to groove
Come on and shake the dust off of your bones
You don't want to be left alone
Cause we've been tricked and fooled for so long
Held captive down in the Babylon
So listen to your heart to show you the way
Don't get caught up in hearsay

I've had enough of this fooling' around
being knocked down and playing the clown
This city life was never meant for me
I've got to get back to the country

'Cause overtime I go to town
I see the policeman with his ticket book in his hand
his says license registration and insurance please
He already knows I ain't got none of these
'Cause I'm a natural dread just trying to survive
Jah knows I ain't gonna work no 9 to 5

But I got to provide for my youths and my wife
And make sure that they live a good life
but Babylon just won't let us be who really want to be
And we've been troddin' for so long

How many more miles 'til we're free (x2)

I'm crying from the mountaintop
Oh Babylon set my people free yeah
Can't let the heathens see

I've had enough of this fooling' around
being knocked down and playing the clown
This city life was never meant for me
I've got to get back to the country

I've enough of this mentality
That's poisoning all humanity
It's rising all around me
so my man I must flee
I've got to get back to the country

So I'm going to spread my wings
fly away,
I can't stay another day
I'm leaving out of Babylon
I'm movin' on
