[00:00:00] Written by：Nathaniel Adderley/Oscar Brown Jr.

[00:00:01] Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang

[00:00:05] Breaking rocks and serving my time

[00:00:09] Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang

[00:00:13] Because they been convicted me of crime

[00:00:17] Hold it steady right there while I hit it

[00:00:21] Well reckon that ought to get it

[00:00:24] Been working and working

[00:00:28] But I still got so terribly far to go

[00:00:33] I committed crime lord I needed

[00:00:36] Crime of being hungry and poor

[00:00:40] I left the grocery store man breathing

[00:00:44] When they caught me robbing his store

[00:00:49] Hold it steady right there while I hit it

[00:00:53] Well reckon that ought to get it

[00:00:56] Been working and working

[00:00:59] But I still got so terribly far to go

[00:01:35] Gonna see my sweet honey baby

[00:01:38] Gonna break this chain off to run

[00:01:42] I'm gonna lay down somewhere shady

[00:01:47] Lord I sure am hot in the sun

[00:01:50] Hold it steady right there while I hit it

[00:01:55] Well reckon that ought to get it

[00:01:58] Been workin' and workin'

[00:02:01] But I still got so terribly far to go

[00:02:06] Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang

[00:02:12] Oh been working and working

[00:02:16] But I still got so terribly far to go
