Malifest Lyrics

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 times were hard
Never got a break or a rise in pay
Uh uh uh - I was just a 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

OOhh - 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 in 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!
