The Dutch Fist Lyrics

inching forward single file,
immune to the
malaria mosquito haze
on the deck of the 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 200 years:
the Dutch Fist has adjusted its grip
the bank branch fat manager's bosses
are using credit like they used to use a whip

chorus (repeats in background):
they change your name
they make you pay

they took your favorite dream
but they can't sell you a house

it's familiar at least
and you take it sitting down

in indiana where you get off the train
consider bringing a whip to hunt them down

inching forward single file immune 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 it's grip the bank branch fat manages bosses are using credit like they used to use a whip

chorus (repeats in background): they change your name they make you pay

they took your family tree but they can't spare you a house

it's half a million at least and you may take this sitting down

in gary, indiana when you get off the train consider bringing a whip to help to hunt them down old fashioned pain
