	作词 : Kaye, Smith
	I looked upon the book of life
	Tracing the lines of face after face
	Looking down at their naked feet
	Bound in chains bound in chains
	Chains of leather chains of gold
	We knew it was wrong but we looked
	away
	And paraded them down the colonial
	streets
	And that's how they became enslaved
	They came across on the great ships
	Mothers separated from their babes
	Husbands stood on the auction block
	Bound in chains bound in chains
	Chains of leather chains of gold
	Men knew it was wrong but they looked
	away
	And led them to toil in fields of white
	As they turned their necks to a bitter
	landscape
	Oh the people I hear them calling
	Am I not a man and a brother
	Am I not a woman and a sister
	History sends us such strange
	messengers
	They come down through time
	To embrace to enrage
	And in their arms even stranger fruit
	And they swing from the trees
	With their vision in flames
	Ropes of leather ropes of gold
	Men knew it was wrong but they looked
	away
	Messengers swinging from twisted rope
	As they turned their necks to a bitter
	landscape
	Oh the people I hear them calling
	Am I not a man and a brother
	Am I not a woman and a siste
	r We will be heard we will be heard
