Chain Gang lyrics

(S.Cooke)Well, don't you knowThat's the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-angWell, don't you knowThat's the sound of the men working on the chain gangAll day long they work so hardTill the sun is goin' downWorking on the highways and by waysAnd wearing, wearing a frownYou hear them moanin' their lives awayThen you hear somebody sayWell don't you knowThat's the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-angWell, don't you knowThat's the sound of the men working on the chain gangCan't ya hear them singin'Well, don't you knowThat's the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-angWell, don't you knowThat's the sound of the men working on the chain gangCan't ya hear them sayin'I'm goin' home one of these daysI'm goin' home see my womanShe's my love so dearBut meanwhile I got to work right hereWell, don't you knowThat's the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-angWell, don't you knowThat's the sound of the men working on the chain gangCan't ya hear them singin'
My work is so hardGive me water, I'm thirstyMy work is so hardGive me water...
