Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pitsBut my hand was made strong
By the Hand of the Almighty
We forward in this generation
TriumphantlyWon't you help to sing these songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have redemption songs
Redemption songsEmancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the timeHow long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look?
Some say it's just a part of it
We got to fulfil The BookSo, won't you help to sing these songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songsOld pirates, yes, they rob I
