Work Gang |
| Well you chop the wood, you bring the hammer down |
| But when your work is done, well you’re |
| Chained and bound |
| You get up next day, with your aching pain |
| Well you take the whip |
| And you start again |
| Now you’re long gone, where you came from |
| It’s the same song from way back home |
| Days are so long, pray to someone |
| Maybe white god |
| Will take us home … |
| Now you’re long gone … |
| Your hear the sound in church |
| Hear the white folks sing |
| Maybe some sweet day |
| You hear them church bells ring |
| And your chains will break |
| And the pain be gone |
| See me dancing on a Sunday |
| To a freedom song |
| Yeah, you’re long gone, where you came from |
| It’s the same song |
| From way back home |
| Days are so long |
| Pray to someone |
| Maybe white god |
| Will take us home |
| Days are so long |
| Pray to someone |
| Maybe white god |
| Will take us home … |
| Yeah you’re long gone … |
