Eric Donaldson - Freedom Street Lyrics

Every time that I remember the old slavery days
My little heart cries out
Oh I wish that one day
Natty gonna walk down freedom street

Let me be
I don't want to live in misery
Why can't you see
That even the prisoners got to be free
Whip flush on my back
And strings around my feet
I work in the burning sun
Until the tears and the sweat stains my face

Freedom street, freedom street
Freedom street, freedom street

Come take my hands I want to drop it to you
Come take my hands, say, just as the conqueror
Come take my hand

Whip flush on my back
And strings around my feet
I work in the burning sun
Until the tears and the sweat stains my face

Freedom street, freedom street
Freedom street, freedom street

Come take my hands I want to drop it to you
Come take my hands, say, just as the conqueror
Come take my hand

Natty Dread a the conqueror
Come take my hand
Freedom street, yeah, freedom street
Come take my hands, say, just as the conqueror
