1
There's a river running sweat right through our land, through our land
2
Driven by a man with a bullwhip 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, won't you cry
6
Every day I watch the colonel smile, oh he 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 face the violence we must be brave
12
Hold on strong to the love God gave
13
Slave, slave
14
To face the violence we must be brave
15
Hold on strong to the love God gave, slave
16
There's a rumor of a war that's yet to come, yet to come
17
That may free our families free our and our sons, and our sons
18
It can lay green lands to waste the barren wastes of the wastes
19
Oh, the price of release is a bitter blow to face of the face
20
Slave, slave
21
To face the violence we must be brave
22
Hold on strong to the love God gave
23
Slave, slave
24
To face the violence we must be brave
25
Hold on strong to the love God gave, slave
26
Slave, slave
27
To face the violence we must be brave
28
Hold on strong to the love God gave
29
Slave, slave
30
To face the violence we must be brave
31
Hold on strong to the love God gave, slave
32
Slave, slave
33
To face the violence we must be brave
34
Hold on strong to the love God gave
35
Slave, slave
36
To face the violence we must be brave
37
Hold on strong to the love God gave, slave
