Hey slavedriver!
I’m asking you this question again and again and again
And again
Work police- you false priest!
Trying to indoctrinate Jah people but, (Hear me man)
When will this payday be?
Slavedriver
When will this payday be?
Tell us this hour
When will this payday be?
For these retired slaves (Let me ask you something)
When will this payday be?
Mr. Bigman
When will this payday be?
When will this payday be?
For all these retired slaves (Ya a listen me?)
My forefather worked down here
On this great plantation
True he didn’t get no pay
For all their wasted days
Tell us now!
When will this payday be?
Mr. Slavedriver
When will this payday be?
Tell us this hour
When will this payday be?
For all these retired slaves (Lord)
Will this payday be Monday?
Will this payday be Tuesday?
Tell us now!
Will this payday be Wednesday?
Wednesday Jah need a working day
(Wednesday can be the Working day)
Can this payday be Thursday?
Ben Johnson day
Can it be Friday?
The Regular Payday!
Will it be Saturday?
Saturday Jean shoemaker wife day
Why don’t you give me that (I want it now)
When will this payday be?
Slavedriver
When will this payday be?
Oh, Jah
When will this payday be?
For these retired slaves
Tell us now!
When will this payday be?
You better give me that-
When will this payday be?
Tell us this hour
When will this payday be?
For these retired slaves
You beat my grandmother in the fields
Rape her and call her a prostitute
Fill the land with colored pay bills
From an outlaw’s race
Chuh!
When will this payday be?
I’m asking
When will this payday be?
Backra Master the table is turned
When will this payday be?
For these retired slaves
We nuh joke, we nuh take back nuh talk
When will this payday be?
Slavedriver!
When will this payday be?
You’d better give me that
When will this payday be?
For these retired slaves
Bwoy, true!
Mama come suffer, father come suffer
Bad man suffer, pickney come suffer
Brother come, gone a prison
Uncle come, no have no job
When will this payday be?
