  • Listen close to hooves you hear
    Are thunders coming dread
    John the Revelator's dream
    Had seen a terror vision
    Of the spirit led
    With wrath to reign
    And with slaves to flame
    They kneeled and sealed a kiss
    Plagues and pain and fiery rain
    And blaspheme on his lips

    Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
    Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
    A pale rider and his horses sing
    Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
    Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast
    Bears the mark of Babylon to be

    Arising with the beast a sea of men
    A bloody moon of red
    A whore of Babylon to bleed the seed
    And make 'em take the mark upon their heads

    They bowed and kneeled a mark to seal
    Their souls unto a kiss
    With fire and flames and with
    Souls to claim
    And rise from the abyss

    Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
    Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
    A pale rider and his horses sing
    Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
    Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast
    Bears the mark of Babylon to be

    (guitar solo)

    And I stood upon the sand of the sea
    And saw a beast rise out of the sea
    Having ten horns and seven heads
    Ten crowns upon his head
    Who is like unto the beast?
    Given his mouth great things to speak
    If any man has an ear
    Let him hear, let him hear

    Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
    Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
    A pale rider and his horses sing
    Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
    Six hundred 6, 6 the rising beast
    Bears the mark of Babylon to be

    Babylon's a-burning, Babylon's a-burning
    Six hundred 6, 6 and 7 seals
    A pale rider and his horses sing Writer/s: STEVE EDWARD DUREN
