She was a Slave

She was a slave
She was her master’s child
She was a slave
Her Father was her master’s child.

Back in the day
She lived in a Pen
That’s where we got the names
Grant’s Pen, Moore’s Pen, May Pen
and there was… Paisley Pen

She was a slave
She was sired by her master’s friend
She was a slave
She was made for Jamaican Society.

Back in the day
The Pen was Home
That is where she did roam

She was a slave
She was her master’s child
She was a slave
She was a Jamaican child.
