SOUND>interspersed with (hooh! aah! hooh!)

I hear somethin' sayin'



(hooh! aah!) (hooh! aah!)

(hooh! aah!) (hooh! aah!)





(Well, 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



All day long they're singin'

(hooh! aah!) (hooh! aah!)

(hooh! aah!) (hooh! aah!)



(Well, 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



All day long they work so hard

Till the sun is goin' down

Working on the highways and byways

And wearing, wearing a frown

You hear them moanin' their lives away

Then you hear somebody sa-ay



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



Can't ya hear them singin'

Mm, I'm goin' home one of these days

I'm goin' home see my woman

Whom I love so dear

But meanwhile I got to work right he-ere



(Well, 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



All day long they're singin', mm

My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my work is so hard

Give me water, I'm thirsty



FADE

My work is so hard
