BABYLON

    letra de Jorge Mautner
    música de Gilberto Gil
    1971

    First time I came to Babylon
    I felt so lonely
    I felt so lonely and people came along
    To mistreat me
    Calling me so many names in the streets
    And I was so shy
    That I began to cry
    But now
    I am so proud
    Of whatever should be
    Cause I have a silver knife
    And my lover is SatanÕs wife
    And I donÕt care
    If you donÕt dare see
