Work Song

Breaking up big rocks on the chain gang

Breaking rocks and serving my time

Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang

'Cause I've been convicted of crime

Hold it steady right there and let me hit it well

Well I reckon that ought to get it, yeah yeah

I've been working

I've been working

Oh well and I still

Got so terribly long to go

Breaking up big rocks on the chain gang

Breaking rocks and serving my time

Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang

'Cause I've been convicted of crime

Hold it steady right there and let me hit it

Well I reckon that ought to get it

I've been working, I've been working

And I still got so terribly long to go

Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin

I've been convicted of crime Lord I needed

A crime of being hungry and poor

I left the grocery store man bleeding

When they caught me robbing his store

Hold it steady right there let me hit it

Well I reckon that ought to get it

I've been working, I've been working

And I still got so terribly long to go

I heard the judge say five years of hard labor

On a chain-gang you gonna go

I heard that dirty judge say five years of labor

I heard my woman scream "Lordy, no!"

Hold it steady right there and let me hit it

Well I reckon that ought to get it

I've been working, I've been working

And I still got so terribly long to go

Wanna see my sweet honey baby

Wanna break this chain off and run

Wanna go lay down somewhere shady

'Cause it's sure goes hot here in the sun

Hold it steady right there and let me hit it

Well I reckon that ought to get it

I've been working, I've been working

Still got so terribly long to go

Breaking up big rocks on the chain gang

Breaking rocks and serving my time

Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang

'Cause I've been convicted of crime

Hold it steady right there and let me hit it

Well I reckon that ought to get it

I've been working, I've been working

Still got so terribly long to go

I've been working, I've been slaving

Still got so terribly long to go

I've been working, I've been slaving

And I still got so terribly long to go
