Do you remember the days of slavery?
Do you remember the days of slavery? And how they beat us And how they worked us so hard And they used us 'Til they refuse us Do you remember the days of slavery? And a big fat bull We usually pull it everywhere We must pull it With shackles around our necks And I can see it all no more Do you remember the days of slavery? My brother feels it Including my sisters too Some of us survive Showing them that we are still alive Do you remember the days of slavery? History can recall, history can recall History can recall the days of slavery Oh slavery days!Oh slavery days! While I remember, please remember Do you do you do you, do you do you do you Oh slavery days!Oh slavery days! |
