《Slave(Alternate ”Fast” Version)》歌词

[00:02:48] Music by Elton John

[00:02:48] Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

[00:02:48] There's a river running sweat right through our land

[00:02:48] Driven by a man with a bullwhip in his hand

[00:02:48] And I've taken just as much as I can stand

[00:02:48] Oh we've got to free our brothers from their shackles if we can

[00:02:48] Most nights I have to watch my woman cry

[00:02:48] Every day I watch the colonel smile

[00:02:48] His painted ladies riding in from town

[00:02:48] I swear one day I'm gonna burn that whore house to the ground

[00:02:48] Slave, slave

[00:02:48] To fight the violence we must be brave

[00:02:48] Hold on strong to the love God gave

[00:02:48] Slave

[00:02:48] There's a rumour of a war that's yet to come

[00:02:48] That may free our families and our sons

[00:02:48] It may lay green lands to barren wastes

[00:02:48] The price of release is a bitter blow to face
