《Chain Gang》歌词

[00:00:00] Chain Gang - Johnny Cash

[00:00:07] I was just a kid roamin' around

[00:00:10] Travelin' through a little ol' town

[00:00:13] A man walked up and said come with me

[00:00:16] You're broke and son that's vagrancy

[00:00:19] A carefree lad that love to roam

[00:00:23] But Lord I wish I'd stayed at home

[00:00:26] The way it looks I'll probably hang

[00:00:29] 'Cause there ain't no hope on a chain gang

[00:00:33] I dig that ditch I chop that corn

[00:00:36] I curse the day that I was born

[00:00:39] I believe it's better for a man to hang

[00:00:42] Than to work like a dog on a chain gang

[00:00:53] The guard stands there with a great big gun

[00:00:56] I bet he'd love to see me run

[00:00:59] And I guess I probably will some day

[00:01:02] I'd rather be dead than to live this way

[00:01:06] He's well fed and he's six foot tall

[00:01:09] And he's a meanest of them all

[00:01:12] He cracks that whip and he swings that cane

[00:01:16] That sun must've touched his brain

[00:01:19] I dig that ditch I chop that corn

[00:01:22] I curse the day that I was born

[00:01:25] I believe it's better for a man to hang

[00:01:29] Than to work like a dog on a chain gang

[00:01:45] I got a gal back home that's sweet and kind

[00:01:49] But she's been waitin' a long long time

[00:01:53] I just told her to forget my name

[00:01:56] I won't ever live down the shame

[00:01:59] Lord deliver me from this hole

[00:02:02] Before I lose my mind and soul

[00:02:05] The flesh gets weak and the back gets broke

[00:02:09] There ain't no 'cause to laugh and joke

[00:02:12] I dig that ditch I chop that corn

[00:02:15] I curse the day that I was born

[00:02:19] I believe it's better for a man to hang

[00:02:22] Than to work like a dog on a chain gang

[00:02:26] Work like a dog on a chain gang

[00:02:29] Work like a dog on a chain gang

[00:02:32] Work like a dog on a chain gang
