Poetry
I slipped off into the night to free the slaves
Slave I once was,
and will be if ever caught again
Across rivers and thru the woods
is the trails I take to free thee
In my journey to be brave,
Never once have I lost a slave
Im up in the early bright,
working fields, day and night
This is the life of me,
A slave that longs to be free
Slave I once was,
and will be if ever caught again
Across rivers and thru the woods
is the trails I take to free thee
In my journey to be brave,
Never once have I lost a slave
Im up in the early bright,
working fields, day and night
This is the life of me,
A slave that longs to be free
