Third World - Slavery Days

Do you remember the days of slav'ry?
(Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)
Do you remember the days of slav'ry?
(Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)

And how they beat us
And how they worked us so hard
And how they used us
Till they refuse us

So do you remember the days of slav'ry?
(Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)
Do you remember the days of slav'ry?
(Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)

And a big fat bull
We usually pull it ev'rywhere
We must pull it
With shackles around our necks
And I can see it all no more

Do you remember the days of slav'ry?
(Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)
Do you remember the days of slav'ry?
(Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)

Some of us survive
Showing them that we are still a live

So do you remember the days of slav'ry?
(Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)
Do you remember the days of slav'ry?
(Do you remember the days of slav'ry?)

(..)

Try and remember, please remember
Try and remember the days of slav'ry
(Try and remember, please remember)
(We remember) The days of slav'ry

We remember the days of slav'ry
Oh, slav'ry days
Oh, slav'ry days
