Chaingang Songtext
von Fred Eaglesmith

Give me water, I need some shade
I′ve been out here for days and days
Show me mercy, call my name
I'm on the chain gang, the chain gang again

I′m on the chain gang, the chain gang of love
Her eyes are my prison, the walls are her touch
I try to run, Lord, but always give up
I'm on the chain gang, the chain gang of love


I looked up into her smile
Somebody said, "Fifteen to life"
I looked down, I never raised my head
Indefinite term was all she said

I'm on the chain gang, the chain gang of love
Her eyes are my prison, the walls are her touch
I try to run, Lord, but always give up
I′m on the chain gang, the chain gang of love

I′m on the chain gang, the chain gang of love
I'm on the chain gang, the chain gang of love
I′m on the chain gang, the chain gang of love
