Eric Donaldson - Freedom Street

Every time that I remember the old slavery days,
My little heart cries out.
Oh I wish that one day,
I will walk down freedom street.

Let me be,
I don't want to live in misery.
Why can't you see,
That even the prisoners got to be free.
Whip flush on my back,
And strings around my feet.
I work in the burning sun,
Until the tears and the sweat stains my face.

Freedom street! Freedom street!
Freedom street! Freedom street!

Come take my hands I want to drop it to you.
Come take my hands, say, just as the conqueror.
Come take my hand.

(..)

Whip flush on my back,
And strings around my feet.
I work in the burning sun,
Until the tears and the sweat stains my face.

Freedom street! Freedom street!
Freedom street! Freedom street!

Come take my hands I want to drop it to you.
Come take my hands, say, just as the conqueror.
Come take my hand.

Natty Dread a the conqueror.
Come take my hand.
Freedom street! Yeah! Freedom street!
Come take my hands, say, just as the conqueror..
