Lyrics
I hear somethin' sayin'
Ooh-aah, ooh-aah
Ooh-aah, ooh-aah
(Well, don't you know?)
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
All day long they're singin'
Ooh-aah, ooh-aah
Ooh-aah, ooh-aah
(Well, don't you know?)
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
All day long they work so hard 'til 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 say
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
Can't ya hear them singin'?
Mmm, I'm goin' home one of these days
I'm goin' home, see my woman whom I love so dear
But meanwhile I've got to work right here
(Well, don't you know?)
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
All day long they're singin', hmm
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my work is so hard
Give me water, I'm thirsty
My, my work is so hard
Ooh-ooh, my, my, my, my, my, my, my work is so hard
