Tommy Hunt – Work Song Lyrics

Artist: Tommy Hunt
Song: Work Song

Been breaking rocks on the chain gang
Breaking rocks and serving my time
Been breaking rocks on the chain gang
Because i´ve been convicted of crime

Hold it steady right there while i hit it
Ha i reckon that ought to get it
Been a-working i´ve been working
And i still got a long way to go

I commited crime lord i needed
Crime of being hungry and poor
I left the grocery store man a-bleeding (breathing?)
Cause he caught me robbing his store

Hold it steady right there while i hit it yeah
Well reckon that ought to get it
Been a-working i´ve been working
And i still got a long way to go

Been working i´ve been working
And i still got a long way to go
Well i heard the judge say five years of labour
To thechain-gang boy you gonna go

I heard the judge say five years labor
I heard my old man scream “lordy, no!”
Hold it right there while i hit it
Well reckon that ought to get it

Been
Been working i´ve been working
And i still got a long way to go, oh ho
I wanna see my sweet honey baby

I ´m gonna take this chain off and run
I wanna lay down somewhere where it´s shady
Lord knows it´s hot in this sun
Hold it steady right there while i hit it

Well reckon that ought to get it
Been
Been working i´ve been working
And i still got a long way to go

Oh looord, it´s so hot
I wanna take this chain
I wanna run run run…
