[intro]
the blood’s run cold
hurts my soul (yeah)

[chorus]
rise and work, they told us
forced by the cracking of the whip (yeah)
rise and work, they told us
so jah jah children, we made the sufferers (yeah)

[verse 1]
your justice is mockering, you will have to pay
for the oppression of i people today

[chorus]
rise and work, they told us
not knowing it would come to this
they never knew, they never knew
rise and work, they told us
slave labour, they said, was fine
while they sit drinking rеd wine

[verse 2]
fight for freedom is the fight for evеry man
accepted by his works, that was jah jah plan
[chorus]
rise and work, they told us
forced by the cracking of the whip
my blood’s run cold
rise and work, they told us
is it worthwhile should jah children sufferers (yeah)
should be sufferers

[instrumental]

[chorus]
rise and work, they told us
slave labour, they said, everything was fine
while they drink up, and drink that wine
building wealth and fortress
stolen from our own gold mines (yeah)

[verse 3]
jah word is a light unto i feet
and a light showing i the way
this may last forever, no, no, no, no, no
wicked, wicked, wicked shall fade away, fade away

[outro]
rise and work, they told us
forced by the cracking of the whip (yeah)
rise and work, they told us
not knowing it would come to this (yeah)
