lyrics

Hmm Lord, hmm Lord
I've been traded away one too many times before
Hmm Lord, hmm Lord
Working in the fields until it aches my bone
I'd pay to see the day my freedom is born

As the creaking ships at night keep me awake
I plot my own sweet escape
So boy, don't you follow me home
But if you do I'll let you know when we're gonna break

Hmm Lord, hmm Lord
White man come to take me from my earth
Says "son I bought you from your worth
A worth that was dirt."

So as the creaking ships at night keep me awake
I plot my own sweet escape
So boy, don't you follow me home
But if you do I'll let you know when we're gonna break

When we're gonna break...
