Slave Dealer`s Daugther Lyrics

I've been trying for so long

Trying to forget

The ports of northern
Africa and the man I met

He said he had a daughter

Maybe I could meet
her

He thought I was a trader

Oh, that was how I met

That slave
dealer's daughter

Her eyes were black her hair was raven

Her skin was
soft and brown

Eighteen years she looked a woman

I thought she'd been
around

She'd never met a jailbird???

I knew that she was lonely

She
offered me her body

So I fell in love

With that slave dealer's
daughter

Her father's men came after me

Trying to hunt me down

For
three long years I've hid my face

And run from town to town

She never
met a jailbird

I knew that she was lonely

She offered me her
body

So I fell in love

With that slave dealer's daugther
