JAH JAH HEAR MY PLEA
Don Carlos


Ooh ooh ooh
I know, I know
Ooh ooh
My heart is filled with grief when I remember
Ooh ooh
How they've taken our poor parents from their homeland
Oh yes
Shipped to every corner of this earth
Boy
Bound in chatters (?) and chains, like they're beasts
Yes

The (?) stands with many strikes by the master
Boy
If they should ever not do just what they're told
Jah jah
It really grieves my heart to see
It's pure brutality
Ah, oh yes

Ooh, ooh
When ever I recall my history
It breaks my heart to see
How they've treated our poor parents in the days of slavery
Ah ooh
Ah ooh

Slavery and brutality, that's all they give me
Ooh
That's all they give me
Jah, I know
Ooh, I know

My heart is filled with grief when I remember
Ooh ooh
How they've taken our poor parents from their homeland
Jah jah
Shipped to every corner of this earth
Ooh ooh
Bound in chatters (?) and chains, like they're beasts
Jah

The (?) stands with many strikes by the master
Ooh ooh
If they should ever not do just what they're told
Jah jah
It really grieves my heart to see
It's pure brutality
Ah ooh
Jah jah

My heart is filled with grief when I remember
Jah jah
How they've taken our poor parents from their homeland
Boys
Shipped to every corner of this earth
Bound in chatters (?) and chains like they're beasts

I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
Ooh ooh
Jah jah
