Lyrics of Work song

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 i'm ought to get it?
Been working and working
? but i still got so terribly far to go

I committed crime lord i needed?
Crime of being hungry and poor?
I left the grocery store man breathing?
When they caught me robbing his store?
Hold it steady right there while i hit it
? well i reckon that i'm gonna to get it
? been working and working?
But i still got so terribly far to go

Gonna see my sweet honey baby?
Gonna break this chain off to run?
Gonna lay down somewhere shady?
Lord sure it's hot in the sun?
Hold it steady right there while i hit it
? well i reckon that i'm gonna get it?
Been workin and workin?
But i still got so terribly far to go
