Damien Dempsey - To Hell or Barbados by Damien Dempsey lyrics

All the golden soft silk sand That surround this pretty island Must have seemed like prison walls, steely bars In this playground of the rich All the yachts and champagne lavished I still see a lonely child watch the stars All of all your evil deeds, many still condoned You sent me far cross the sea to be owned To Hell or Barbados, To Hell or Barbados To Hell on Barbados we were sent Its a Heaven on this Earth A creators work of art And the sun sets o'er the sea so divine Then a whiplash licks my heels And my scorched skin bursts and peels Though my people were not made for these burning fields All of all your evil deeds, many still condone But your crime of slavery goes unknown Good men like old Wilberforce,,they came far too late Far too late to save us from the fate Of Hell or Barbados, Oh Hell or Barbados To Hell or Barbados we went To Hell or Barbados, To Hell or Barbados To Hell on Barbados we were sent Hold on, no no no no no no Don't you dare let go of my hand But they prised us apart, ran a sword through my heart Sent us on our way Hold on, no no no no no no Don't you dare let go of my hand But they prised us apart, ran a sword through my heart Sent us on our way Hold on, no no no no no no Don't you dare let go of my hand But they prised us apart, ran a sword through my heart Sent me on my way To Hell or Barbados, To Hell or barbados To Hell on Barbados we went To Hell or Barbados, To Hell on Barbados To Hell on Barbados we went --- .
