Old Pirates, y

 
es, they rob I

.
             
Sold I to the 

         
merchant ships
             
minutes after 

            
they took I   

             
from the botto

    
mless pit.
             
But my hand wa

      
s made strong
             
By the hand of


 the Almighty.
             
We forward in 

            
this generatio

           
n triumphantly

.


[Chorus]

              
Won't you help

            
 to sing    th

            
ese songs of f

reedom?
            
'Cause all I e

,

ental slavery,
             
None but ourse

How long shall
