Malifest

Oh lord! take me when I’m really ready
I fell, now I’m up again and steady
I was born without a dime
Oh yeah! the losing card
All I ever had was a body and time
Oh yeah! the time were hard
Never got a break or rise in pay
Uh uh uh — I was just slave
Working like a dog to my dying day
Uh uh uh — to an early grave
Oh yeah the weight is gone
Oh yeah the weight is gone
Oh yeah the weight is gone
Oh yeah the weight is gone
Came along a man with an Union card
Uh uh uh — the times were hard
Standing up proud to face the guards
Uh uh uh — the weight was gone
Ooohhh — don’t go dancing round my grave
Or singing hymns and sad songs
Don’t wanna hear the angels calling
Angels calling
Ooh — I saw it getting better
I saw it in another world
I saw it a better place
Unrest again
Get it out, unrest again
Ooh — I saw it getting better
I saw it in another world
I saw it a better place
Unrest again
Get it out, unrest again
I was born without a dime
Oh yeah! The losing card
All I ever had was a body and time
Oh yeah! the time were hard
Oh yeah the weight is gone
Oh yeah the weight is gone
Ooh — I saw it getting better
I saw it in another world
I saw it a better place
Unrest again
Get it out, unrest again
Ooh — I saw it getting better
I saw it in another world
I saw it a better place
Unrest again
Get it out, unrest again
Oh Lord take me when I’m really ready
I fell, now I’m up again and steady
I leave for the revolution
Oh lord, oh Lord
Oh Lord take me when I’m really ready
