Bob Marley & The Wailers
Slave Driver - Live At Music Hall, Boston / 1978
Slave driver the table is turned
Catch your fire so you can get burned, now
Slave driver the table is turned
Catch your fire, you're gonna get burned
Every time I hear the crack of the whip
My blood runs cold
I remember on the slave ship
How they brutalized our 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 machine that make money
Slave driver the table is turned
Slave driver the table is turned baby now
Catch a fire so you can get burned baby now
Slave driver the table is turned
Catch your fire so you can get burned
Every time I hear the crack of the whip
My blood runs cold
I remember on the slave ship
How they brutalized our very souls
Oh god have mercy on our souls
