The Dutch Fist

Inching forward, single file

You're new to the malaria mosquito haze

On the deck of a slaver



One more time you strain your neck

For one last glimpse of your young fine wife

Tied ankle to ankle

Boarding a different ship



Fast-forward two hundred years

The Dutch Fist has adjusted its grip

The bank branch fat manager's bosses

Are using credit like they used to use the whip



They'll change your name

Then make you pay

Oh yes, they'll change your name

Then make you pay



They take your family tree but they can't sell you a house

They'll make you pay

It's half a million at least and you need interest and down

They'll make you pay

In Gary Indiana when you get off this train(?)

They'll make you pay

Consider bringing a whip to help you understand the old-fashioned pain

(What'll they do?)

They'll take your name



(They'll change your name)

They'll take your name and make you pay for it

(They'll change your name)

They'll take your name and make you...
