Chain Gang Lyrics - The Headpins

I'm up up outa bed; I fight every day 

I've got to stay together or I'll never get paid 

Forget the crowded bus on the way downtown 

So damn tired, you know it's draggin' me down 

Ohh, Well I'm not sayin' it's over and done 

I know it's never easy when you're under the gun 

It won't do; Can't take it no more! 

You know what I'm sayin', I've said it before. 

It's like 

"working on a chain gang" 

I've been workin' all day 

Work my fingers to the bone 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

No, you can't do this 

No, you can't do that 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

I've been workin' all day 

Work my fingers to the bone 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

Uhh ohh ya 

No you can't do that 

Everybody's looking for the chance to be free 

I'm searchin' for the answer 

Searchin' for the key 

I'm locked up in chains for the whole world to see 

You never get away 

No, they never let you be 

Oh, well I'm not sayin' it's over and done 

I know it's never easy when you're under the gun 

It won't do; Can't take it no more 

I say what the hell! I say it once more! 

It's like 

"working on a chain gang" 

I've been workin' all day 

Work my fingers to the bone 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

No, you can't do this 

No, you can't do that 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

Uhh ohh ya 

Work my fingers to the bone 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

No, you can't do this 

No, you can't do that 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

"heave!.....ho!" 

I've been workin' all day 

Work my fingers to the bone 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

No, you can't do this 

No, you can't do that 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

Oww 

I've been workin' all day 

Work my fingers to the bone 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

No, you can't do this 

No, you can't do that 

Uhhh huh ya 

"Workin' on a chain gang" 

"Workin' on a chain gang"
