As war drums beat in Babylon
As war drums beat in Babylon
Cinnamon Girl starts to pray
Cinnamon Girl starts to pray
I never heard a prayer like this one
I never heard a prayer like this one
Never before that day
Never before that day
Tearful words of love for people she had never met before
Tearful words of love for people she had never met before
Asking God to grant them mercy in this face of a holy war
Asking God to grant them mercy in this face of a holy war
Cinnamon Girl

Cinnamon Girl of mixed heritage
Cinnamon Girl of mixed heritage
Never knew the meaning of color lines
Never knew the meaning of color lines
911 turned that all around
911 turned that all around
When she got accused of this crime
When she got accused of this crime
So began the mass illusion, war on terror alibi
So began the mass illusion, war on terror alibi
What's the use when the god of confusion
What's the use when the god of confusion
Keeps on telling the same lie?
Keeps on telling the same lie?

Don't cry, don't shed no tears
Don't cry, don't shed no tears
One night won't make us feel
One night won't make us feel
'Cause we know how this movie's ending
'Cause we know how this movie's ending
Cinnamon Girl
Cinnamon Girl
As war drums beat in Babylon
As war drums beat in Babylon
And scorch the blood red sky
And scorch the blood red sky
Militants bomb the foreign gun
Activists bomb the foreign gun
Both sides, children die
Both sides, children die
Cinnamon Girl opens the book she knows will settle all the scores
Cinnamon Girl opens the book she knows will settle all the scores
Then she prays after the war that there will not be anymore
Then she prays after the war that there will not be anymore
Cinnamon Girl
