Tribute To A Slave
My friend Nat
Though our eyes never met (you know, you know)
My friend Nat (mm, hmm, Lord have mercy)
Though our eyes never met
And the voices so distant apart
Yet our heart still beat as one
I can see what's begun a rebellion on the white father's son
My friend Nat (mm, hmm, Lord have mercy)
We ain't sure where you're at
My friend Nat
We ain't sure where you're at
(You might, you might, you might, you might, you might) Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yes, you might be here with us (oh, yes, you might now)
In the midst of all this fuss
Bought some chains to set you free
Now reincarnate me
My friend Nat
Woo, we ain't slaves no more my people (and we ain't slave)
We ain't slaves no more (no, no)
We ain't slaves no more my people
My friend Nat
We ain't sure where you're at (no, no)
My friend Nat (mm, hmm, Lord have mercy)
We ain't sure where you're at
(You might, you might, you might, you might, you might) Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yes, you might be here with us (oh, yes, you might now)
In the midst of all this fuss
Bought some chains to set you free
Now reincarnate me
My friend Nat
Woo, we ain't slaves no more my people (and we ain't slaves)
We ain't slaves no more (no, no)
We ain't slaves no more my people (we're not brother, come on)
Woo, we ain't slaves no more my people (no, no)
We ain't slaves no more (I gotta change, I gotta change)
We ain't slaves no more my people
Though our eyes never met (you know, you know)
My friend Nat (mm, hmm, Lord have mercy)
Though our eyes never met
And the voices so distant apart
Yet our heart still beat as one
I can see what's begun a rebellion on the white father's son
My friend Nat (mm, hmm, Lord have mercy)
We ain't sure where you're at
My friend Nat
We ain't sure where you're at
(You might, you might, you might, you might, you might) Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yes, you might be here with us (oh, yes, you might now)
In the midst of all this fuss
Bought some chains to set you free
Now reincarnate me
My friend Nat
Woo, we ain't slaves no more my people (and we ain't slave)
We ain't slaves no more (no, no)
We ain't slaves no more my people
My friend Nat
We ain't sure where you're at (no, no)
My friend Nat (mm, hmm, Lord have mercy)
We ain't sure where you're at
(You might, you might, you might, you might, you might) Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yes, you might be here with us (oh, yes, you might now)
In the midst of all this fuss
Bought some chains to set you free
Now reincarnate me
My friend Nat
Woo, we ain't slaves no more my people (and we ain't slaves)
We ain't slaves no more (no, no)
We ain't slaves no more my people (we're not brother, come on)
Woo, we ain't slaves no more my people (no, no)
We ain't slaves no more (I gotta change, I gotta change)
We ain't slaves no more my people
