| After twelve years of feeding | |
| Days spent barely breathing | |
| I'm worth only a few bags of grain | |
| Oh the shame, the shame, the shame | |
| So I'll take me beating | |
| Never once complaining | |
| Oh the shame, oh the shame, the shame | |
| After sixteen years hard labour | |
| He bumped into a neighbour | |
| Who told him about a world gone insane | |
| He said, “ | |
| I cannot stress any stronger | |
| But you cannot rest on your honour†| |
| The shame, the shame, the shame | |
| She leaves her there sleeping | |
| Hoping that she's dreaming | |
| About a life worth more than a few bags of grain | |
| Oh the shame, oh the shame, the shame | |
| But my spirit will live on | |
| My daughter you will not claim | |
| My spirit will live on | |
| My spirit you can not claim | |
| My daughter you will not claim | |
| Can not claim | |
| You can not claim |
| After twelve years of feeding | |
| Days spent barely breathing | |
| I' m worth only a few bags of grain | |
| Oh the shame, the shame, the shame | |
| So I' ll take me beating | |
| Never once complaining | |
| Oh the shame, oh the shame, the shame | |
| After sixteen years hard labour | |
| He bumped into a neighbour | |
| Who told him about a world gone insane | |
| He said, | |
| I cannot stress any stronger | |
| But you cannot rest on your honour | |
| The shame, the shame, the shame | |
| She leaves her there sleeping | |
| Hoping that she' s dreaming | |
| About a life worth more than a few bags of grain | |
| Oh the shame, oh the shame, the shame | |
| But my spirit will live on | |
| My daughter you will not claim | |
| My spirit will live on | |
| My spirit you can not claim | |
| My daughter you will not claim | |
| Can not claim | |
| You can not claim |
| After twelve years of feeding | |
| Days spent barely breathing | |
| I' m worth only a few bags of grain | |
| Oh the shame, the shame, the shame | |
| So I' ll take me beating | |
| Never once complaining | |
| Oh the shame, oh the shame, the shame | |
| After sixteen years hard labour | |
| He bumped into a neighbour | |
| Who told him about a world gone insane | |
| He said, | |
| I cannot stress any stronger | |
| But you cannot rest on your honour | |
| The shame, the shame, the shame | |
| She leaves her there sleeping | |
| Hoping that she' s dreaming | |
| About a life worth more than a few bags of grain | |
| Oh the shame, oh the shame, the shame | |
| But my spirit will live on | |
| My daughter you will not claim | |
| My spirit will live on | |
| My spirit you can not claim | |
| My daughter you will not claim | |
| Can not claim | |
| You can not claim |
