Lyrics Slave Driver - Live At The Sundown Theatre, Edmonton, UK / May 1973 - The Wailers , Bob Marley

And I'll play some music, you know
And I'll go on
Slave driver, you know

Slave driver, the table has turned
Catch a fire, you're gonna get burned now (catch a fire)
Slave driver, the table has turned
Catch a fire, you're gonna get burned (catch a fire)
Whoa

Every time I hear the crack of a whip, my blood runs cold
I remember on the slave ship
How they brutalized our 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 make money

Slave driver, the table has turned
Catch a fire, you're gonna get burned now (catch a fire)
Slave driver, the table has turned (catch a fire)
Catch a fire, you're gonna get burned
Whoa

Every time I hear the crack of the whips, my blood runs cold
I remember on the slave ship
How they brutalized our 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 make money

Slave driver, the table has turned
Catch a fire, you're gonna get burned (yep)
Slave driver, the table has (catch a fire)
Catch a fire, you're gonna get burned

Slave driver
