Sun wind or rain
When up the sun came
They had to forget their pain
And cut that sugarcane
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Bushel to a barrel
That's 4 point 5
Create demand
And control the supply
They need sugar for the pastries
The cake and the pie
Somethin' sweet
To make the suffer of the days
Past by
The chef can't cook that
If we don't cut that
And if we leave some slack
Then the whip say crack
And that ain't sweet yo
Cause we still people
Not beasts
In the field so you can have
Your sweets yo
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Swingin' sweatin' choppin'
Cause we gotsta
And they don't care
If it gets more hotter
Machete fa chop
And Make the cut more proper
We call it karma
You can call it slaughter
Mais, s'il vous plaît
Coup sucre to burrow
You can let peace go
Or let free sweets go
Oh you up taxin'
Takin the max and
We up rise
And Then you re-up taxin'
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
Down low on chopping dat sugar cane
Metropole know none how sugar made
