Lyrics
Woy! Desperation has return Sodom and Gomorrah no deh yah so! Woy desperation has return over yonder Sodom and Gomorrah no deh yah so! Wild one, you are like the Prodigal Son yeah And if you're the Prodigal Son, my friend Then you're the one, you Left taking your only possession Your culture To enter a world known for hacklings In abundance, yeah The hustlers of life Have hooked and drained you from the man Form the man that you used to be, turn your back on us Return Rastaman where you came from The land of your forefathers Reaching the gates with your two long hands Searching out for clean water Wild one... Prodigal come forth and rejoice with your voice To the heavens Chant some song, chant some song Prodigal come forth and repent Rastafari sins forgiven Woy! Desperation has return... One has returned without one's soul And has squandered all his possessions Let us cleanse your body now From your service to the swine, because You've been dead and now to anoint your head With wisdom, knowledge and overstanding A lesson has been taught unto you my friend Time for a feast and rejoicing Wild one... Chorus Woy! Desperation has return Prodigal has returned to his culture Prodigal has returned give him water Prodigal has returned, has returned...
