Roll of thunder, hear my cry... White people listen to my words
Over the water, bye and bye... Over the ocean where you stole me from over time
Ole man coming down the line... slave master keeping slaves chained together
Whip in hand to beat me down... slave owner beating slaves into submission and to lose all hope
But I ain't gonna let him turn me around... I refuse to lose my self-respect and dignity of self worth
What else can I help you with?
