Artist/Band: Otis Redding
Lyrics for Song: Chain Gang
Lyrics for Album: 100 Hits Legends-Otis Redding [1965]



That's the sound of the men

They are working on the chain gang

That's the sound of the men

They are working on the chain gang

That's the sound of the men

They are working on the chain gang



All day long they work so hard

till the sun's comin' down

workin on the highways and biways

and wearin a frown



I hear them moanin' their lives away

and then you hear somebody say



(chorus)



Hear someone sayin'

whoa I work, work so hard

See my woman, who I love so dear,

but I, I've got to work right here.



(chorus)



My, my, my, my, I work so hard

Give me water, I'm thirsty

Whoa I, I work so hard



You hear them moanin' their lives away,

and then you hear somebody say



(chorus)

(chorus)
