Long Chain |
One night as I lay on my pillow |
Moon shining bright as the dawn |
I saw a man come-a-walkin' |
He had a long chain on |
I heard his chain a clankin' |
It made a mournful sound |
Welded around his body |
Dragging along on the ground |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
He came up to my window |
He looked at me and he said |
«I am so tired and hungry |
Give me a bite of your bread» |
He did not look like a robber |
He didn’t look like a thief |
His face was all covered in sadness |
He had a voice full of sorrow and grief |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
I went into my kitchen |
Got him a bowl full of meat |
A drink and a pan of cold biscuits |
That’s all I had for him to eat |
And though he was tired and hungry |
A bright light came over his face |
He bowed his head on his bosom |
He made a beautiful grace |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
(Long chain, long chain, long chain) |
(He had a long chain on) |
(Long chain, long chain, long chain) |
(He had a long chain on) |
I fetched my chisel and hammer |
Offered to set him free |
He shook his head and said sadly |
Guess we had best let it be |
When he had finished his supper |
He thanked me again and again |
And though it’s been years since I saw him |
I still hear the rattle of his chain |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
He had a long chain on |
