Tradin'
The talk was sweet: just come with me
I'll give you work across the sea
I'll make you rich, just step in here
The trap was closing then and there
Tradin'
Ain't no sweet when you're tradin '
Your body and soul
So far away from home
So far away from your mothers stove
Young and poor with dreams of gold
She took a job - but she got sold
Her muffled mouth and covered eyes
He makes his business between her thighs
Tradin'
Ain't no sweet when you're tradin '
Your body and soul
So far away from home
So far away from your mothers stove
Far away in cold and snow
Silent men, they pay and go
Here's no future, here's no hope
He takes the cash and gives her dope
Tradin'
Ain't no sweet when you're tradin'
Your body and soul
So far away from home
So far away from your mothers stove
Do you know who cries next door?
A kidnapped girl? A slaving whore?
Far away in unknown lands
All her dreams turned into sand
Tradin'
Ain't no sweet when you're tradin'
Your body and soul
So far away from home
So far away from your mothers stove
Tradin'
Ain't no sweet when you're tradin
Your body and soul
So far away from home
So far away from your mothers stove
I'll give you work across the sea
I'll make you rich, just step in here
The trap was closing then and there
Tradin'
Ain't no sweet when you're tradin '
Your body and soul
So far away from home
So far away from your mothers stove
Young and poor with dreams of gold
She took a job - but she got sold
Her muffled mouth and covered eyes
He makes his business between her thighs
Tradin'
Ain't no sweet when you're tradin '
Your body and soul
So far away from home
So far away from your mothers stove
Far away in cold and snow
Silent men, they pay and go
Here's no future, here's no hope
He takes the cash and gives her dope
Tradin'
Ain't no sweet when you're tradin'
Your body and soul
So far away from home
So far away from your mothers stove
Do you know who cries next door?
A kidnapped girl? A slaving whore?
Far away in unknown lands
All her dreams turned into sand
Tradin'
Ain't no sweet when you're tradin'
Your body and soul
So far away from home
So far away from your mothers stove
Tradin'
Ain't no sweet when you're tradin
Your body and soul
So far away from home
So far away from your mothers stove
