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 ...
