Slave Trade Lyrics – The Jewels

Slave Trade Lyrics by The Jewels

Well! Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
Uh now, yeah
Children of the slave trade (Hu-hee)
We are captive (Hu-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee)

I said, my children of the slave trade (Hu-hee)
We are captive (Hu-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee)
I say, they take us from our fore parents land
An’ take us on a ship call “Jesus”

SS Jesus (From Lübeck)
SS Jesus (From Lübeck)
An’ they take us beyond the Carib, beyond the sea
Tryin’ to lock I an’ I away from our culture an’ our religion too

They treat us (They trеat us)
With brutality (With brutality)
An’ they treat us (An’ they trеat us)
No humanity (No humanity)

Now we on ya (Now we on ya)
As free man fighter (As free man fighter)
We on ya (Now we on ya)
As free man fighter (As free man fighter, I say now)

Children of the slave trade (Hu-hee)
We are captive (Hu-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee)
I said, my children of the slave trade (Hu-hee)
We are captive (Hu-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee)

Shoo-be-dup
Shoo-be-dup now (He-he-he-he-he)
Shoo-be-dup {Scatting}
Shoo-be-dup {Scatting}

Shoo-be-dup (He-hey)
Shoo-be-dup now {Scatting}
Shoo-be-dup, shoo-be-dup
They take us from our fore parents land

An’ take us on a ship call “Jesus”
SS Jesus (From Lübeck)
SS Jesus (From Lübeck)
An’ they take us beyond the Carib, beyond the sea

Tryin’ to lock I an’ I away from our culture an’ our religion too
