lyrics
Breaking up big rocks on the chain gang
Breaking rocks and serving my time
Breaking up big rocks on the chain gang
'cause I've been convicted of a crime
Hold it steady right there while I hit it
Yeah I reckon that that ought to get it
'cause I'm working
Well I'm working
But I still got so terribly long to go
Heard the judge say five years of labor
Heard the judge say five years or more
Heard the judge say five years of labor
Heard my woman scream "Johnny, no!"
Hold it steady right there while I hit it
Yeah I reckon that that ought to get it
Well I'm working
Yes I'm working
But I still got so terribly long to go
Heard the judge say five years of labor
Heard him say five years dontcha' know
Heard the judge say five years of labor
Heard my woman scream "Johnny, no! no! no!"
Hold it steady right there while I hit it
Yeah I reckon that that's gonna' get it
Well I'm working
Yes I'm working
And I still got so terribly long to go
Hold it steady right there while I hit it
I reckon that that ought to get it
Yeah
