A Young Slave
Why can't I play?
White children dance and sing
in the light of day.
White children dance and sing
in the light of day.
I want the tears to stop.
The tears of my family and friends.
There is too much fear.
What lies around the bend?
I hope freedom.
All the wounds will heal.
Songs will be sung in the sun.
End the day with a delicious meal.
The days could be fun.
Instead of my back in pain.
Do not yell and whip us.
And make us work in the rain.
I hope and pray for freedom.
