Chain Gang Blues
I'm singing the chain gang blues
You can sing anything you choose
There's twenty-nine links around my feet
I'm singing the chain gang blues

I'm thinking of sweet Marie
And our baby in Tennessee
That bank I robbed in Alabam
It put me where I am

I'm singing the chain gang blues
You can sing anything you choose
There's twenty-nine links around my feet
I'm singing the chain gang blues

I'm working that old highway
Feels like forty-eight hours a day
Will my sweetheart be there waiting for me
Way down in Tennessee
