Treadmill - Steel Mill

Aw aw uh.

Aw aw uh

Aw aw uh.

Aw aw uh

Get you back, you black slave

Aw aw uh

One more step to your grave

Aw aw uh

When you hear that chime bell

Aw aw uh

Curse the water to hell

Aw aw uh

May you scum dreaded time

On the trap and the line

Tie me down to a stone

Hear my body twist and moan

Prints and sweat above from my brow

You come down to put me in chains

I ain’t going to be no white man’s slave

You come down to put me back in chains

Set me free before I die

Let me know reason why

They won’t leave me alone

Take me back to my home

Ain’t going to be no white man’s trash

See the stripes across my back

You have tried without success

You’re much more than the rest
