Slave Trade Songtext
von Mista Savona feat. The Jewels

Children of the Slave Trade
You hear what the mighty Jewels say

Well
Yeh yeh yeh yeh
Nu-now
Well

Children of the slave trade (oo-ee)
We are in (captive)
Ooh yeh yeh yeh yeh
I said now children of the slave trade (oo-ee)
We are (captive)
Ooh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh


I said they take us from our fore-parents land
And take us on a ship called Jesus
(SS Jesus) from Lübeck
(SS Jesus) from Lübeck
And they take us beyond the Caribbean coast
Trying to lock I and I away from our culture and our religion
(They treated us)
They treated us
(With brutality)
With brutality
(And they treated us)
And they treated us
(With no humanity)
No humanity
(Now we′re on ya)

Now we're on ya
(As free-man fighters)
As free-man fighter
(We′re on ya)
Now we're on ya
(As free-man fighters)
As free-man fighter I say now

Children of the slave trade (ooh-yeh)
We are in (captive)

Ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-oh-oh

And they take us beyond the Caribbean coast, yeh
Trying to lock I and I away, from our culture and our religion
(They treated us)
They treated us
(With brutality)
With brutality
(And they treated us)
And they treated us
(With no humanity)
No humanity
(Now we're on ya)
