Chain Gang

Huh, ha, huh
I hear something saying
Huh, ha, huh, ha
Huh, ha, huh, ha

Well, don't you know
That's the sound of the men
Working on the chain gang

That's the sound of the men
Working on the chain gang
All day long, they're saying

Huh, ha, huh, ha
Huh, ha, huh, ha

Well, don't you know
That's the sound of the men
Working on the chain gang

That's the sound of the men
Working on the chain gang

All day long, they work so hard
'Til the sun is going down
Working on the highways and byways
And wearing, wearing a frown
You hear them moaning their lives away
Then you hear somebody say

That's the sound of the men
Working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men
Working on the chain gang
Can't you hear them saying

Huh, ha, huh, ha

I'm going home one of these days
I'm going home, see my woman
Huh, ha, huh, ha
Whom I love so dear
But meanwhile, I've got to work right here

Huh, ha, huh, ha

Well, don't you know

That's the sound of the men
Working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men
Working on the chain gang
All day long, they're saying

Huh, ha, huh, ha

My, my, my, my, my, my, my
My work is so hard
Give me water, I'm thirsty
My, my, my, my work is so hard
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, my
My work is so hard
