Slave (Alternate "Fast" Version / Session Demo) Lyrics

Slave, slave
To face the violence, we must be brave
Hold on-
I don't think we're gonna do one, Gus
Like we're getting worse and worse (give it one more go)
Alright
This really feels so good
Try it one more time, take six
One, two, three, four
Sorry, one, two, three, four

Violent through our land, through our land
Driven by a man with a bullwhip, baby, in his hand, in his hand

Each night I have to watch the Colonel smile, oh, his smile
Each night I have to watch the Colonel smile, oh, his smile
Painted ladies, riding in from town, in from town
Oh, I swear one day, I'm gonna burn that whorehouse to the ground, to the ground

Oh, slaves, slaves
To face the violence, we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave
Slave, slave
To face the violence, we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave

Through our land, through our land
Driven by a man with a bullwhip, baby, in his hand, in his hand
It's taken just so much, just so much that I can't stand, I can't stand
And I'm gonna, na, na, na, na, na, na, if we can, if we can

Oh, slave, slave
To face the violence, we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave
Slave, slave
To face the violence, we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave

Slave, slave
To face the violence, we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave
Slave, slave
To face the violence, we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave

Slave, slave
To face the violence, we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave
Slave, slave
To face the violence, we must be brave
Hold on strong to the love God gave
