slave song - adolphus hailstork lyrics
go on, go on, oh ships!
you are loosed from your moorings, you are free; and i am fast in my chains, a slave! you move merrily before the gentle gale, and i sadly before the bl**dy whip! you are freedom’s swift*winged angels, that fly around the world; i am confined in bands of iron! o that i were free! o, that i were on one of your gallant decks under your protecting wing!
go on, go on, oh ships!
why was i born a man to make a brute! why am i a slave? o god, save me, deliver me! let me be free! i shall not live and die as a slave. i will not stand it. get caught, or get clear, i’ll try it. i had rather get k!lled running as die standing
go on, go on, oh ships!
only think of it; one hundred miles straight north, and i am free! i will take to the water. i will walk straight through delaware and when i get there, i shall not be required to have a pass
go on, go on, oh ships! only think of it; one hundred miles straight north, and i am free! shall i try it?
