Slave Driver

Bob Marley & The Wailers

Ooh-ooh-oo-ooh. Oo-oo-ooh! Oo-oo-ooh.

Slave driver, the table is turn (catch a fire)

Catch a fire, so you can get burn, now (catch a fire)

Slave driver, the table is turn (catch a fire)

Catch a fire: gonna get burn (catch a fire) Wo, now!



Ev'rytime I hear the crack of a whip,

My blood runs cold

I remember on the slave ship,

How they brutalize the very souls

Today they say that we are free,

Only to be chained in poverty

Good God, I think it's illiteracy

It's only a machine that makes money

Slave driver, the table is turn, y'all

Ooh-ooh-oo-ooh



Slave driver, uh!

The table is turn, baby, now (catch a fire)

Catch a fire, so you can get burn, baby, now (catch a fire)

Slave driver, the table is turn, y'all (catch a fire)

Catch a fire: so you can get burn, now (catch a fire)



Ev'rytime I hear the crack of a whip,

My blood runs cold

I remember on the slave ship,

How they brutalize the very soul



O God, have mercy on our souls!

Oh, slave driver, the table is turn, y'all (catch a fire)

Catch a fire, so you can get burn (catch a fire)

Slave driver, the table is turn, y'all (catch a fire)

Catch a fire...
