Get ready to go to Zion
Rastaman, I say

Get ready to go to Zion
Fe go ride the lion

Get ready to go to Zion
Fe go jump with dragon

Get ready to go to Zion

I can see all the harpers
Because of the Black Star Liner
Just linking and waiting
To take all rastaman

Get ready to go to Zion
Natty Dread, I say

Get ready to go to Zion
Fe go ride the lion

Get ready to go to Zion
Fe go chant and be one

Get ready to go to Zion

Getting mother and fathers
Listening what they are saying
What Jah teaching the children
Specially the young ones

Get ready to go to Zion
Please be careful

Get ready to go to Zion
So, you better do good

Get ready to go to Zion

(…)

Getting mother and fathers
Who are the roots of the children
Who should teach them good
And try to get and go on such glory streets

Get ready to go to Zion
Rastaman, I say

Get ready to go to Zion
Fe go ride the lion

Get ready to go to Zion
You have to be clean

Get ready to go to Zion
You don't have be a queen

Get ready to go to Zion
Nor either a king

Get ready to go to Zion
Zion keep on saying

Get ready to go to Zion
