Lyrics

Working every day into the burning sun
And yet I just can't get no pay at all, no no
Working so hard, with no food to eat
No-no clothes to cover my skin, no no
They say we're free from captivity
But we are still in slavery
They removed the chains but they use us with brains
Tell me why it's got to be this way?
Working every day into the burning sun, yes
And yet I just can't get no pay at all, no no
Working so hard, with no food to eat, no
No-no clothes to cover my skin, no no
Oh no, no-no-no-no, no-no, no-no-no-no, oh no
They say we're free from captivity
But we are still in slavery, yes
They removed the chains but they use us with brains
Tell me why it got to be this way?
Working every day into the burning sun, yes
And yet I just can't get no pay at all, no no
Working so hard, with no food to eat, no
No-no clothes to cover my skin, oh yes, oh yeah
Woo-woo-woo yeah, whoo-oi, oh yeah
Working every day yeah, oh yeah, oh-whoa
In the burning sun, Lord, oh-oh, oh yes
I'm working just like a slave and we can't get no pay
Only the bosses, whoa-oh, get their pay
Oh yes, oh-oh, oh yeah, oh-no
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
