Breaking up big rocks on the chain gang
2
Breaking rocks and serving my time
3
Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang
4
'Cause I've been convicted of crime
5
Hold it steady right there and let me hit it well
6
Well I reckon that ought to get it, yeah yeah
7
I've been working
8
I've been working
9
Oh well and I still
10
Got so terribly long to go
11
Breaking up big rocks on the chain gang
12
Breaking rocks and serving my time
13
Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang
14
'Cause I've been convicted of crime
15
Hold it steady right there and let me hit it
16
Well I reckon that ought to get it
17
I've been working, I've been working
18
And I still got so terribly long to go
19
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin
20
I've been convicted of crime Lord I needed
21
A crime of being hungry and poor
22
I left the grocery store man bleeding
23
When they caught me robbing his store
24
Hold it steady right there let me hit it
25
Well I reckon that ought to get it
26
I've been working, I've been working
27
And I still got so terribly long to go
28
I heard the judge say five years of hard labor
29
On a chain-gang you gonna go
30
I heard that dirty judge say five years of labor
31
I heard my woman scream "Lordy, no!"
32
Hold it steady right there and let me hit it
33
Well I reckon that ought to get it
34
I've been working, I've been working
35
And I still got so terribly long to go
36
Wanna see my sweet honey baby
37
Wanna break this chain off and run
38
Wanna go lay down somewhere shady
39
'Cause it's sure goes hot here in the sun
40
Hold it steady right there and let me hit it
41
Well I reckon that ought to get it
42
I've been working, I've been working
43
Still got so terribly long to go
44
Breaking up big rocks on the chain gang
45
Breaking rocks and serving my time
46
Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang
47
'Cause I've been convicted of crime
48
Hold it steady right there and let me hit it
49
Well I reckon that ought to get it
50
I've been working, I've been working
51
Still got so terribly long to go
52
I've been working, I've been slaving
53
Still got so terribly long to go
54
I've been working, I've been slaving
55
And I still got so terribly long to go
