Free the Slave

[00:14.15] Meet me by the riverside
[00:17.24] Later on the day
[00:20.40] Gonna watch the hanging of an honest man
[00:26.96] They say he ain't the guilty one
[00:30.11] But someone has to pay
[00:33.37] They will not be pleased before they see him hang
[00:38.83] As he cries out
[00:43.28] Turn and face the crowd
[00:45.51] As he cries out
[00:49.74] No one makes a sound
[00:51.92] As he cries out
[00:56.11] Oh, he hits the ground
[00:58.66] He cries out
[01:02.86] Where's your spirit now?
[01:06.15] Drown me in the river
[01:09.41] String me from a tree
[01:12.47] So won't you free the slave in me?
[01:15.99]
[01:35.72] Oh, oh
[01:42.63]
[01:47.89] Leave me when the time is near
[01:51.13] Leave me be in peace
[01:54.32] This is not the way you should remember me
[02:00.77] Have you nothing else to say?
[02:04.09] Final words of truth
[02:07.50] Forgive them father for they know not what they do
[02:13.01] As he cries out
[02:17.22] Mercy can't be found
[02:19.52] As he cries out
[02:23.71] No one makes a sound
[02:26.29] As he cries out
[02:30.06] Before he hits the ground
[02:32.96] He cries out
[02:36.94] Where's your savior now?
[02:40.31] Throw me in the ocean
[02:43.48] Cast me in the sea
[02:46.31] So won't you free the slave in me?
[02:49.95]
[03:00.32] Don't you know, oh, don't you know
[03:03.04] Woah, they're going to come for you
[03:05.54] You can run, run on out
[03:08.01] Oh, they're going to come for you
[03:10.85] Until you bleed out
[03:15.08] Until you bleed out
[03:22.03] Dark days are coming
[03:24.76] Dark days, so you should take shelter
[03:28.25] You should take shelter
[03:30.69] Dark days are coming
[03:33.22] Dark days are here
[03:39.46] So is your conscience clear?
[03:42.07]
[03:49.07] Have you seen the brave man hanging from the tree?
[03:56.25] Say, who'll be the first to see?
[04:01.36]
