Lyrics
Breaking
rocks
out
here
on
the
chain
gang
Breaking
rocks
and
serving
my
time
Breaking
rocks
out
here
on
the
chain
gang
Because
they
done
convicted
me
of
crime
Hold
it
steady
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
I
committed
crime
Lord
I
needed
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,
reckon
that
ought
to
get
it
Been
working
and
working
But
I
still
got
so
terribly
far
to
go
I
heard
the
judge
say
five
years
On
chain-gang
you
gonna
go
I
heard
the
judge
say
five
years
labor
I
heard
my
old
man
scream
Lordy,
no!
Hold
it
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
Gonna
see
my
sweet
honey
bee
Gonna
break
this
chain
off
to
run
I′m
gonna
lay
down
somewhere
shady
Lord,
I
sure
am
hot
in
the
sun
Hold
it
right
there
while
I
hit
it
Well,
reckon
that
ought
to
get
it
Been
workin'
and
workin′
Been
workin'
and
slavin'
An′
workin′
and
workin'
But
I
still
got
so
terribly
far
to
go
