Work Song (Live) - Bobby Darin

Written by：Nat Adderley/Oscar Brown/Jr.

Yeah

Breaking up been rocks on a chain gang

Breaking rocks and serving my time

Breaking up these rocks on a chain gang

'Cause I been convicted little crime

Now hold it steady right there while I hit it

Yeah

Reckon that ought a get it

Been working I been working

But I got me so terrible long to go

I been convicted of the crime lord of needing

Crime of being hungry and poor

I had leave that grocery man bleeding

When he found me robbing his store

Now hold it steady right there while I hit it

Yeah

Reckon that ought a get it

Been working I been working

But I got me so terrible long go

Yeah

Heard a judge say five years labor

To chain gang you got go

I heard a judge say five years labor

Heard my woman scream lordy no

Hold it steady right there while I hit it

That ought a get it

Been working I been working

But I got me so terrible long go

Captain told me you got to watch your behavior

Did you're work just like a natural man

I told the captain you'd be meeting your savior

Come on close to this hammer in my hand

Now hold him steady right there while I hit him

Yeah

That ought a get him

Been working

Ought I been working

But I got me so terrible long go

I wanna see my sweet honey baby

I wanna break these chains off and run

I wanna lay my head where it's shady

Lord knows it gets hot in this sun

Now hold it steady right there while I hit it

That ought a get it

Been working I been working

But I got me so terrible long go

I tell you I been working

In I been working long

But I got me so terrible long go

You know I got me so terrible long go

Lord I got me so down long go
