Chain Gang - The Nylons

Oh don’t you know

That’s the sound of the men

Workin' on the chain gang

Oh don’t you know

That’s the sound of the men

Workin' on the chain gang

All day long they work so hard

'Til the sun’s comin' down

Workin' on the highways and byways

And wearin' a frown

I hear them moanin' their lives away

Then you hear somebody say

Oh I work so.

I work so hard

To see my woman

Who I love so dear

But I, I’ve gotta work right here

Oh I work so.

I work so hard

To see my woman

Who I love so dear

But I, I’ve gotta work right here

My my my my my my my my my my

My work is so hard

Give me water

I’m thirsty

Oh I, oh my work is so hard

You hear them moanin' their lives away

Then you hear somebody say

Oh I work so.

I work so hard

To see my woman

Who I love so dear

But I, I’ve gotta work right here

I don’t wanna work on that gang (repeat)
