Lyrics
Working on the chain-gang 7 days a week
Never had a sunday off
Been here for a life time body's getting weak
Down here in the dirt you got no lucky streak
I'm gonna set me free Everything I wanna be I know it's up to me
A slave I never be
Dying in a coal mine half a mile below
Dirty lungs that gasp for air
Haven't seen the sunshine don't know for how long
Never thought I end my life while i'm still young
I'm gonna set me free Everything I wanna be I know it's up to me
A slave I never be
Let my master know I am cutting off these chains
I don't fear his whip no more
Stand up like a human walk away a man
Gonna set me free and jump out of this frying pan
