The Band - Chain Gang Lyrics

Oh, don't you know
That's the sound of the men workin' on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men workin' on the chain gang
All day long they're singin'

All day long they work so hard
Till the sun's goin' down
Working on the highways and byways
And wearing a frown

You hear them moanin' their lives away
Then you hear somebody say

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

I'm goin' home one of these days
I'm goin' home to see my woman
Whom I love so dear
But meanwhile I've got to work right here

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

Ooh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my work is so hard
Give me water, I'm thirsty
Oh, I'm workin' so hard

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