Slave Market Lyrics

Gregory Isaacs Slave Market

You'll never get away!

I saw you with your cargo
In the midst of the Atlantic, yeah
With my brothers and my sisters
Heading towards the western slave market

You kill some and you sell some
Shot some and then jail some
But what a price you've got to pay
Upon Jah Judgement day
Upon Jah Judgement day
Upon Jah Judgement day

You'll never get away!

I said I saw you with your cargo, yeah
In the midst of the Atlantic, ooh wee
With my brothers and my sisters
Heading towards the western slave market
And it grieved me so

You kill some and you sell some
Shot some and then jail some, brutally
But what a price you've got to pay
Upon Jah Judgement day
Upon Jah Judgement day, yeah

You just can't get away
That's what my Father say
No wicked can never get away
Never get away
Never, never get away
