Slave Driver

(альбом: Mo' Roots - 1974)

Ooh-ooh-oo-ooh... oo-oo-ooh... oo-oo-ooh...
Slave driver, the table is turn (catch a fire)
Catch a fire, so you can get burn, now (catch a fire)
Slave driver, the table is turn (catch a fire)
Catch a fire: gonna get burn (catch a fire) wo, now!

Ev'rytime I hear the crack of a whip
My blood runs cold
I remember on the slave ship
How they brutalize the very souls
Today they say that we are free
Only to be chained in poverty
Good God, I think it's illiteracy
It's only a machine that makes money
Slave driver, the table is turn, y'all
Ooh-ooh-oo-ooh...

Slave driver, uh! The table is turn, baby, now (catch a fire)
Catch a fire, so you can get burn, baby, now (catch a fire)
Slave driver, the table is turn, y'all (catch a fire)
Catch a fire: so you can get burn, now (catch a fire)

Ev'rytime I hear the crack of a whip
My blood runs cold
I remember on the slave ship
How they brutalize the very soul

O God, have mercy on our souls!
Oh, slave driver, the table is turn, y'all (catch a fire)
Catch a fire, so you can get burn (catch a fire)
Slave driver, the table is turn, y'all (catch a fire)
Catch a fire...
