Al day long they work so hard

Until the sun is going down

Working on the highways and byways

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

That's the sound of the men

Working on the chain gang

That's the sound of the men

Working on the chain gang

One of these days I'm going home

To se my woman my woman so dear

But right now I got to work so hard

But right now I got to stay right here

Bring me water

My work is so hard

Bring me water

My work is so hard

Bring me water

My work is so hard

Bring me water

My work is so hard

That's the sound of the men

Working on the chain gang

That's the sound of the men

Working on the chain gang

Working on the

That's the sound of the men

Working on the chain gang

That's the sound of the men

Working on the chain gang

I know I know I know I know

That's the sound of the men

That's the sound of the men

Working on the chain

That's the sound

That's the sound of the men

Working on the chain gang

I Know I Know I Know I 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

I Know I Know I Know I 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
