On dem plantation
And mi neva get pay
Our gold they stole away
How many life dem slay
Now dem work seh slap dem in dem face.
Fire yes
You and your crook can go to hell
For after we nuh under your colonial spell
And all those false doctrins that you compel
Eh
And all those books you stole away
All those kids you led astray
Wait till your judgement day
