Lyrics

The sun goes down on the edge of town
The overseer's eyes slowly move around
In the Berlin winter 1938
Observing the station and the human freight
A hidden boat in a stormy night
Full of skulking passengers 1945
A sleeping demon travels coast to coast
Seeking fertile soil and a willing host
Under the silent danger of a white man's gun
Black men slave with loaded dirty wagons
A new world grows slowly with the mountains of ore
The new white bosses from the land that made the world wide war
He said: "Four ounce **** gotta load this train
Load it till it breaks down under pressure
Go to my commando to charge wagon
I wanna see you sweat, I wanna see you pay
Load this train
Forget 95 tons
I want a 110
And I warned you once
And I'll warn you again
That the storm is coming
That the storm is coming"
The sun cuts down like a razor blade
Namibia 1988
The overseer's eyes are too tired to see
His five ounce gun sighted silent
And the black man said
"Come on brothers, let's load this train
Load it till it breaks down under pressure
Load it till the wheels stop turning around
Load it till the walls come tumbling down"
