Song Lyrics
Can t ya hear them sayin, can t ya hear them singin
All day long they work so hard, that s the sound of the men working on the chain gang
then you hear somebody say
My work is so hard, i m goin home see my woman, working on the highways and by ways
My work is so hard, that s the sound of the men working on the chain gang
Give me water, wearing a frown, my work is so hard
That s the sound of the men working on the chain gang, don t you know Gang, well don t you know
Don t you know, don t you know
wearing a frown
That s the sound of the men working on the chain gang, well don t you know
That s the sound of the men working on the chain gang, wearing a frown
Wearing a frown, don t you know
Can t ya hear them singin, don t you know Gang, but meanwhile i got to work right here
That s the sound of the men working on the chain gang, don t you know
that s the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-ang
That s the sound of the men working on the chain gang, don t you know
Give me water, till the sun is goin down
Can t ya hear them singin, that s the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-ang, my work is so hard
that s the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-ang
Don t you know, she s my love so dear
don t you know
Don t you know, wearing a frown
That s the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-ang, that s the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-ang Wilson, my work is so hard
Wearing a frown, she s my love so dear
That s the sound of the men working on the chain gang, give me water, wearing a frown
that s the sound of the men working on the chain gang
Can t ya hear them singin, but meanwhile i got to work right here
That s the sound of the men working on the chain gang, my work is so hard
can t ya hear them singin
Don t you know, my work is so hard
Can t ya hear them sayin, i m goin home one of these days
that s the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-ang
That s the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-ang, can t ya hear them singin
All day long they work so hard, that s the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-ang, don t you know
Don t you know, don t you know, don t you know
Don t you know, i m goin home one of these days
Give me water, i m goin home one of these days, don t you know
