| CHAIN GANG (WORK SONG) |
| Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang Breaking rocks and serving my time Breaking rocks out here on a chain gang Cos I've been convicted a crime Hold it steady right there while I hit it Well I reckon that out to get it I've been working aha I'm working But I still got so terribly far to go I committed crime Lord I needn't Crime of being hungry and poor I left the grocery store man breathing When they caught me robbing his store Hold it steady right there while I hit it Well I reckon that ought to get it Been working aha I'm working But I still got so terribly far to go Gonna see my sweet honey baby Gonna break this chain off to run I'm gonna lay down somewhere shady Lord it sure is hot in the sun Hold it steady right there while I hit it Well I reckon that ought to get it I've been working mmm mmm working But I still got so terribly far to go Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang Oh I've been working and working But I still got so terribly far to go |
