All the lyrical prophets have been warning us through their music.

[WMAGene]

This song pours from the speakers like slow syrup. Delicious!

" I remember on the slave ship, how they brutalised my very soul" - Wow. I am 58 yrs old. I wonder if I will die still listening to this music from Bob. I started listening when I was only 13yrs old. This is deep stuff. Born out of Truth and Justice. Modern day prophet no less. R.I.P. Bob Marley and good blessings, gratitude to THE WAILERS, including Peter Tosh. Jah guide. I am guided by this Reggae, Rastafari, Revolution doctrine everyday. Praise the Lord!

The very 1st Bob Marley and the Wailers album I ever purchased👌

The undisputed King of Reggae! He started the modern day Reggae Revolution. A true pioneer. ‘Love Always’ Matthew 19:26

every time I hear the click of the cuffs, my blood runs cold

This song is prophetic. The world is going to see who the TRUE chosen children, the TRUE lost tribe of the Most High is and their slave drivers are going to reap what they have sown. What a time to be alive. R.I.P Aston Barret

[Nijthabarber]

One of the most meaningful Bob Marley songs he ever brought to you

"Slave Driver"

Ooh-ooh-oo-ooh. Oo-oo-ooh! Oo-oo-ooh.
Slave driver, the table is turn; (catch a fire)
Catch a fire, so you can get burn, now. (catch a fire)
Slave driver, the table is turn; (catch a fire)
Catch a fire: gonna get burn. (catch a fire) Wo, now!

Ev'rytime I hear the crack of a whip,
My blood runs cold.
I remember on the slave ship,
How they brutalize the very souls.
Today they say that we are free,
Only to be chained in poverty.
Good God, I think it's illiteracy;
It's only a machine that makes money.
Slave driver, the table is turn, y'all. Ooh-ooh-oo-ooh.

Slave driver, uh! The table is turn, baby, now; (catch a fire)
Catch a fire, so you can get burn, baby, now. (catch a fire)
Slave driver, the table is turn, y'all; (catch a fire)
Catch a fire: so you can get burn, now. (catch a fire)

Ev'rytime I hear the crack of a whip,
My blood runs cold.
I remember on the slave ship,
How they brutalize the very soul.

O God, have mercy on our souls!
Oh, slave driver, the table is turn, y'all; (catch a fire)
Catch a fire, so you can get burn. (catch a fire)
Slave driver, the table is turn, y'all; (catch a fire)
Catch a fire ... [fadeout]

Bob Marley was a good songwriter, and "Bob Marley and the Wailers" were a good band. The band members at the time consisted of guitarist Peter Tosh, backup singers Rita Marley and Marcia Griffiths, percussionist Bunny Wailer, bassist Aston "Family Man" Barrett, and drummer Carlton Barrett. This song also features one or more studio musicians, including keyboardist John "Rabbit" Bundrick.
