Bob Marley & The Wailers - Iron Lion Zion (original)
I had to run like a fugitive, to save the life I live
I'm gonna be, iron, like a lion, in Zion
I'm gonna be, iron, like a lion, in Zion
Oh yeah
(Lion, iron, Zion) Iron, Zion
I'm on the run, but I ain't got no gun
See they want to be the star
So they fighting tribal war
And they saying
Iron, like a lion, in Zion - eh
Iron, like a lion in Zion
Iron, lion, Zion
I'm on the rock-a
Seel-ya-bub, I take a stock
I had to run like a fugitive, ooh Lord
Just to, just to save the life I live, oh now
Until I'm gonna be, iron, like a lion, in Zion
(What did I say) I'm gonna be, iron, like a lion, in Zion
(What did you say) Iron, lion, Zion
I'm on the run, but I don't got no gun
See, my brothers wanna be the stars
So they fighting tribal war
And they saying
Iron, like a lion, in Zion - wha
Iron, like a lion, in Zion
Seel-ya-bub
(Iron, lion, Zion) Yeah, now, now
Iron, lion, Zion
I'm on the run
Have no gun
Iron, lion, Zion
