I though the version Joe linked was quite clear. Here's my transcription.

SATAN I WON'T BE YOUR SERVANT NO MORE


  Satan I won't be your servant no more.
  Satan I won't be your servant no more.
  Imprisoned in a place so poor
  That Jesus opened up the door.
  Satan I won't be your servant no more.

While searching for the way
I wandered far astray
Stranger showed an easy path to me.
But as we walked along
I could see the path was wrong,
But the stranger had me under lock and key.


  Satan I won't be no servant to thee.
  Satan I won't be no servant to thee.
  You had my soul in slavery
  But Jesus come to set me free.
  Satan I won't be no servant to thee.

I found that Satan's way
Is darkness and decay
The toll that he claims destroys the soul.
The balm he offered me
Is lies and slavery,
But Jesus broke my chains and made me whole.


  Satan I won't be your slave again.
  Satan I won't be your slave again.
  Trying to free myself from pain
  I got myself a ball and chain.
  Satan I won't be your slave again.

  Satan I won't be your servant no more.
  Satan I won't be your servant no more.
  Imprisoned in a place so poor
  That Jesus opened up the door.
  Satan I won't be your servant no more.
