作曲 : Traditional
Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang
Breaking rocks and serving my time
Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang
Cause they been convicted of crime
Hold it steady right there while I hit it
Well I reckon that ought to get it
Been working and working
But I still got so terribly far to go
I commited crime lord I needed
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 while I hit it
Well I reckon that ought to get it
Been working and working
But I still got so terribly far to go
Gonna see my sweet honey baby
Gonna break this chain off to run
Gonna lay down somewhere shady
Lord sure is hot in the sun
Hold it steay right there while I hit it
Well reckon that ought to get it
Been working and working
But I still got so terribly far to go
Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang
Oh
Been working and working
But I still that so terribly far to go
