Boney M. - Somewhere In The World Lyrics

Boney M. - Somewhere In The World Video

Time, changer of seasons, time will see another flower growing.
Climb over the mountains, there you'll find warm winds blowing.
 
Somewhere in the world there is peace of mind.
Somewhere in the world that's what I must find.
Somewhere in the world there's a place for me in this world.
 
I cannot believe it, everywhere I see lonely faces.
Why have we no answers, just some more empty places?
 
Somewhere in the world there is peace of mind.
Somewhere in the world that's what I must find.
Somewhere in the world there's a place for me in this world.
 
Time, changer of seasons, time will see another flower growing.
Climb over the mountains, there you'll find warm winds blowing.
 
Somewhere in the world there is peace of mind.
Somewhere in the world that's what I must find.
Somewhere in the world there's a place for me in this world.
 
Somewhere in the world there is peace of mind.
Somewhere in the world that's what I must find.

Boney M. - Rivers Of Babylon Lyrics

Boney M. - Rivers Of Babylon Video

By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
Yeah we wept, when we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
Yeah we wept, when we remembered Zion
 
When the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
Now, how shall we sing the Lord's song
In a strange land?
 
When the wicked carried us away in captivity
Requiring of us a song
Now, how shall we sing the Lord's song
In a strange land?
 
Let the words of our mouth
And the meditation of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight here, tonight
 
Let the words of our mouth
And the meditation of our heart
Be acceptable in thy sight here, tonight
 
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
Yeah we wept, when we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
Yeah we wept, when we remembered Zion
 
By the rivers of Babylon (dark tears of Babylon)
There we sat down (you got to sing a song)
Yeah we wept (sing a song of love)
When we remembered Zion (yeah yeah yeah)
 
By the rivers of Babylon (rough bits of Babylon)
There we sat down (you hear the people cry)
Yeah we wept (they need their God)
When we remembered Zion (ooh, have the power)

Boney M. - We Kill The World (Don't Kill The World) Lyrics

Boney M. - We Kill The World (Don't Kill The World) Video

I see mushrooms, atomic mushrooms.
I see rockets, missiles in the sky.
Day by day, more and more,
Where will this lead to
And what is this good for?
Poor World, Poor World.
 
Concrete's rising up,
Where yearerday was park
You heard the Robin's Song
Heavy tractor runs
Where air was clean and cool
Make money, bringing fuel.
 
Where will this lead to
And what is this good for?
A Poor World, Poor World.
 
Fishes doomed to die
As people live close by
And oaktree falls with moon
Parking lots will come
With flowerfields were bright
As junkyard covers sight!
 
Where will this lead to
And what is this good for?
Poor world, is hurting bad,
Poor world, is doomed to die.
 
We kill the world
Kill the world
We surely do
In peace we do!
We kill the world
Kill the world
'Cause we don't know
What we are doing!
 
We kill it
One by one
Don't realize!
 
And nuclear piles stand like monuments
Of destruction throughout over the country
 
Promenades must go
So cars can drive in row
New Fact'ry towers tall
Farmhouse had to fall
No flowers in the air
Pollution everywhere.
 
Where will this lead to
And what is this good for?
A Poor world, Poor World.
 
Oceans in despair
There's rubbish everywhere
The seaweed chokes in mud
Nature's had her lot
With nuclear waste and rot
And mushrooms bloom as clouds.
 
Where will this lead to
And what is this good for?
Poor world, is hurting bad,
Poor world, is doomed to die.
 
We kill the world...
 
Don't kill the world
Don't let her down.
Do not destroy basic ground.
Don't kill the world
Our means of life.
Lend ear to nature's cry.
 
Don't kill the world
She's all we have,
And surely is worth to save.
Don't let her die,
Fight for her trees,
Pollution robs air to breathe.
 
Don't kill the world
Help her survive
And she'll reward you with life
And don't just talk,
Go on and do the one, who wins is you.
 
Cherish the world,
A present from God
On behalf of all creatures,
Made by the Lord
Care for the earth,
Foundation of life
Slow progress down help her survive

Boney M. - Painter Man Lyrics

Boney M. - Painter Man Video

Went to college, studied arts
To be an artist make a start
Studied hard, gettin' my degree
But no one seemed to notice me
 
Painter man, painter man
Who wanna be a painter man
Painter man, painter man
Who wanna be a painter man
 
Tried cartoons and comic books
Dirty postcards could have done
Here was where the money laid
Classic art has had it's day
 
Painter man, painter man
Who wanna be a painter man
Painter man, painter man
Who wanna be a painter man
 
Did adverts for T.V.
Household shops and brands of tea
Labels all around the cans
Who wanna be a painter man
 
Painter man, painter man
Who wanna be a painter man
Painter man, painter man
Who wanna be a painter man
 
La...la...la...la...la...la...
La...la...la...la...la...la...la...
Painter man, painter man
Who wanna be a painter man

Boney M. - Take The Heat Off Me Lyrics

Boney M. - Take The Heat Off Me Video

Take the heat off me
Please take the heat off me
Yes I'm burning
If you really lie and cheat
I don't want to meet your kind of terms no more
 
So take the heat off me
Please take the heat off me
Yes I'm burning
Don't believe you're trying to make it
And I just can't keep on taking it no more
 
Don't mean to say you double-crossed me
But somehow I think that you've lost me
Maybe you weren't even trying to see
Where I was or where I should be
And if you're just faking
We'd better start breaking away tonight
So take this fire from my heart tonight
 
So take the heat off me
Please take the heat off me
Yes I'm burning
Don't believe you're trying to make it
And I just can't keep on taking it no more
 
Take the heat off me
Please take the heat off me
Yes I'm burning
If you really lie and cheat
I don't want to meet your kind of terms no more
 
Don't mean to say you double-crossed me
But somehow I think that you've lost me
Maybe you weren't even trying to see
Where I was or where I should be
And if you're just faking
We'd better start breaking away tonight
So take this fire from my heart tonight
 
So Take the heat off me
Please take the heat off me
Take the heat off me
Please take the heat off me
Take the heat off me
Yes I'm burning
If you really lie and cheat
I don't want to meet your kind of terms no more
 
So Take the heat off me
Please take the heat off me

Please take the heat off me

Boney M. - I'm Born Again Lyrics

Boney M. - I'm Born Again Video

I'm born again, I feel free
No longer alone
A bright light is shinning
And shows me a world that I own
I can see my way through
I know I will walk beside you
All those prayers of mine weren't in vain
I'm born again
 
I'm born again, I feel free
There's a quite different me
No longer I'm tossed like a ship
On an unruly sea
I've been blessed with a love
That's meant for the rest of my time
All those prayers they were not in vain
I'm born again
 
Since love touched my heart right
My life has a meaning
I feel I'm no longer drifting in space
I believe once again that there is a tomorrow
A brand new tomorrow, I know I can face
 
I'm born again, I feel free
No longer alone
A bright light is shinning
And shows me a world that I own
I can see my way through
I know I will walk beside you
All those prayers of mine weren't in vain
I'm born again
 
All those prayers they weren't in vain
'Cause I'm born again

Boney M. - Ma Baker Lyrics

Boney M. - Ma Baker Video

She was the meanest cat
In old Chicago town
She was the meanest cat
She really mowed them down
She had no heart at all
No no no heart at all
 
She was the meanest cat
Oh she was really tough
She left her husband flat
He wasn't tough enough
She took her boys along
'cos they were mean and strong
 
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker but she knew how to die
 
They left a trail of crime
Across the U.S.A.
And when one boy was killed
She really made them pay
She had no heart at all
No no no heart at all
 
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker but she knew how to die
 
And then a man she liked
She thought she'd stay with him
When he informed on them
They did away with him
She didn't care at all
Just didn't care at all
 
- Here is a special bulletin.
Ma Baker is the FBI's most wanted woman.
Her photo is hanging on every post office wall.
If you have any information about this woman,
Please contact the nearest police station...
 
- Don't anybody move! The money or your lives!
 
One day they robbed a bank
It was their last foray
The cops appeared too soon
They couldn't get away
And all the loot they had
It made them mighty mad
And so they shot it out
Ma Baker and her sons
They didn't want to hang
They died with blazing guns
And so the story ends
Of one who left no friends
 
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker but she knew how to die
 
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker she taught her four sons
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker to handle their guns
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker she never could cry
Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Baker but she knew how to die

Boney M. - I See A Boat On The River Lyrics

Boney M. - I See A Boat On The River Video

He left on a boat
Just to follow a dream
He had to find.
You can't hold a man
When he follows a dream
That's on his mind.
 
I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
I waited for him
Such a very long time,
Don't Know what for
'Cause I should have known
When he left on the boat
We'll meet no more.
 
I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
Boat on the river.
You're bound for the sea,
If you should find him
Please greet him from me.
 
There were people who came
And said it's really a shame,
Why did he take off
To follow just a dream.
But I guess they were wrong,
In life you're sailing along
And things don't turn out
As simple as they seem.
 
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
I see a boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to the ocean,
Where to I can't say.
 
I see a boat on the river.
You're bound for the sea,
If you should find him
Please greet him from me.
 
Boat on the river,
It's sailing away
Down to
