- Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang
Breaking rocks and serving my time
Breaking rocks out here on the chain gang
Because they done convicted me of crime
Hold it steady right there while I hit it
Well I reckon that ought to get it
Been
Working and working
But I still got so terribly far to go
I commited crime Lord I needed
Crime of being hungry and poor
I left the grocery store man bleeding (breathing?)
When they caught me robbing his store
Hold it steady right there while I hit it
Well I reckon that ought to get it
Been
Working and working
But I still got so terribly far to go
I heard the judge say five years
On chain-gang you gonna go
I heard the judge say five years labor
I heard my old man scream "Lordy, no!"
Hold it right there while I hit it
Well I reckon that ought to get it
Been
Working and working
But I still got so terribly far to go
Gonna see my sweet honey bee
Gonna break this chain off to run
Gonna lay down somewhere shady
Lord I sure am hot in the sun
Hold it right there while I hit it
Well I reckon that ought to get it
Been
Workin' and workin'
Been
Workin' and slavin'
An'
Workin' and workin'
But I still got so terribly far to go
Singer is: Terry Callier
I’m 76. I do remember that Chain Gang. Hard characters all.
They had their own honor.
This deserves a lot more attention than it has.
Indeed
Goosebumps, just to know where these men were and went through and still find music for a lil peace....or maybe telling they're story. Anyway Freckin goosebumps man.
That wailing though. Can’t fake that painful wailing.such a great song
Good 👌 song 🎵 and is real...
Don't know why it got recommended to me, but I'm glad it did
Love this. Original soul.
Remembering our roots.
Remember our history

Eric Burdon and The Animals would have done this song justice.
