Verse 1:

          Cm                   Gm
I say the people of Handsworth,
Cm  Gm
    Know that;
Cm                        Gm          Cm  Gm
 One hand wash the other, so they say.     So...
      Cm
Let's join hands my bredren,
Gm                     Cm                           Gm
 Make the way, for our children, (our children, our children),
          Cm                               Gm
And their children, (their children, their children).
   Cm                          Gm             Cm  Gm
En-suring that they get life's fair share of...
  Cm        Gm  Cm  Gm
E-quality...

Cm                Gm
 Doesn't justice, stand for all?
Cm                Gm
 Doesn't justice, stand for all?
Cm                          Gm
 Doesn't justice, stand for all man-kind?

   Cm      Gm                Cm    Gm
We find so-ciety, putting us down,
Cm                                            Gm
 Crowning us, crowning us, crowning us, crown-ing us;
Cm                    Gm
 A place of evil, oh, oh.

Cm                             Gm
 Handsworth means us the black people,
Cm                             Gm
 Handsworth means us the black people.
              Cm                    Cm 
We're talking now; speaking Jah Jah language!

Chorus 1:

       G7         F7         Ab7    G7
It's a long, long way, we're coming from.
   G7        F7        Ab7      G7
To send this message a-cross, a-cross.

         G7          F7          Ab7          G7
Its been hidden, for-bidden, con-cealed, unre-vealed,
    G7          F7         Ab7   G7
Its got to come out in the open, that...

Verse 2:

Cm          Gm       Cm         Gm
 Babylon is falling, Babylon is falling.
       Cm                  Gm
It was foolish to build it on the sand,
                 Cm
Handsworth shall stand firm,
Gm                       Cm
 Like Jah rock; fighting back.
                 Gm
We once beggars, are now choosers,
   Cm           Gm
No intention to be losers,
         Cm               Gm
Striving forward, with am-bition,
          Cm         Gm
And if it takes ammu-nition,
            Cm         Gm
We rebel in Handsworth Revolution.

         Cm                  Gm
Dread we are for a cause, de-prived of many things,
   Cm                     Gm
Ex-perienced phoney laws, hatred Babylon brings.
Cm            Gm                Cm             Gm
 We know what you got to offer; we know what's going on.
      Cm
Don't want no favours, 'cos there is still hunger,
     Gm
Inno-cent convicted, poor wage, hard labour,
     Cm
Only Babylon prospers and humble suffer.
         Gm            Cm
They are brothers...in South of Africa,
    Gm                                Cm    Gm
One Black represent all, all over the world.
      Cm
Can't bear it no longer, blessed with the power,
   Gm
Of Jah Creator, we will get stronger,
