1
There's a river running sweat right through our land, through our land
2
Driven by a man with a bull whip in his hand, in his hand
3
And I've taken just as much as I can stand, I can stand
4
Oh we've got to free our brothers from their shackles if we can, if we can
5
Most nights I have to watch my woman cry, oh she cries
6
Every day I watch the colonel smile, always smiles
7
His painted ladies riding in from town, in from town
8
Oh I swear one day I'm gonna burn
9
That whore house to the ground, to the ground
10
Slave, slave
11
To fight the violence we must be brave
12
Hold on strong to the love God gave
13
Slave
14
There's a rumor of a war that's yet to come, yet to come
15
That may free our families, free our families and our sons, and our sons
16
It may lay green lands to barren wastes, down to waste, down to waste
17
Oh the price of release is a bitter blow to face, out of face
18
Slave, slave
19
To fight the violence we must be brave
20
Hold on strong to the love God gave

22
Slave, slave
23
To fight the violence we must be brave
24
Hold on strong to the love God gave
25
Slave, slave
26
To fight the violence we must be brave
27
Hold on strong to the love God gave
