Babylon Sisters Lyrics

[Chorus]
Babylon sisters shake it
Babylon sisters shake it
So fine, so young
Tell me I'm the only one

Here come those Santa Ana winds again

[Bridge]
My friends say, "No don't go
For that cotton candy

Son you're playing with fire
The kid will live and learn
As he watches his bridges burn
From the point of no return"


[Chorus]
Babylon sisters shake it
Babylon sisters shake it
So fine, so young
Tell me I'm the only one


[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
You got to shake it baby
You got to shake it baby
You got to shake it
You got to shake it baby
You got to shake it baby
You got to shake it

You got to shake it baby
You got to shake it baby
You got to shake it

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
