Slave (Alternate "Fast" Version)

There's a river runnin' sweat right through our land

Through our land

Driven by a man with a bull whip in his hand

In his hand

And I've taken just as much as I can stand

I can stand

Oh we've got to free our brothers

From their shackles yeah if we can

If we can

Most nights I have to watch my woman cry

Oh she cries

Everyday I watch the colonel smile

Oh he smiles

His painted ladies ridin' in from town

In from town

Oh I swear one day I'm gonna burn

The whore house to the ground

To the ground

Slave slave to fight the violence

We must be brave

Hold on strong to the love God gave

Slave slave to fight the violence

We must be brave

Hold on strong to the love God gave

Slave

There's a rumor of a war that's yet to come

Yet to come

That may free our families

Free our families and our sons

And our sons

It may lay green lands to barren waste

All to waste

All to waste

Oh the price of release is a bitter blow to face

Oh the face

Slave slave to fight the violence

We must be brave

Hold on strong to the love God gave

Slave slave to fight the violence

We must be brave

Hold on strong to the love God gave

Slave

Slave slave to fight the violence

We must be brave

Hold on strong to the love God gave

Slave slave to fight the violence

We must be brave

Hold on strong to the love God gave slave

Slave slave to fight the violence

We must be brave

Hold on strong to the love God gave

Slave slave to fight the violence

We must be brave

Hold on strong to the love God gave

Slave
