Slave Call - The Ethiopians

I don’t have a red, red cent to pay

I’ve got my home to reach and I will reach it one day

'Cause we were taken away by force

Scattered all around the Caribbean coast

No, not a cent to pay

Yes, I’ve got to reach home one day

Yes, it was four hundred years ago

They took us from our homeland, as you should know

Yes, with the slave chains still on our hands

They leave us here to work on their plantations

But nyah-man say

No, not a cent to pay

Yes, I’ve got to reach home one day

Zion, Zion, Zion, Zion high

Zion, Zion, Zion, Zion

Zion, Zion, Zion, Zion high

Zion, Zion, Zion

I-man get a call and a Zion call

I-man get this call it said «Babylon you’re falling»

I-man get a call and a Zion call

I-man get this call it said «Babylon you’re falling»

No, oh no, not a cent to pay

Yes, I’ve got to reach home one day

Zion, Zion, Zion-lion, Zion high

Zion, Zion-lion, Zion, Zion

Zion, Zion, Zion-lion, Zion, Zion high

Zion, Zion, Lion!
