Back on the Chain Gang |
| I found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh |
| What hijacked my world that night |
| To a place in the past we’ve been cast out of? |
| oh oh oh oh |
| Now we’re back in the fight |
| We’re back on the train |
| Oh, back on the chain gang |
| A circumstance beyond our control, oh oh oh oh |
| The phone, the TV, and the news of the world |
| Got in the house like a pigeon from hell, oh oh oh oh |
| Threw sand in our eyes and descended like flies |
| Put us back on the train |
| Oh, back on the chain gang |
| The powers that be that force us to live like we do |
| Bring me to my knees when I see what they’ve done to you |
| But I’ll die as I stand here today knowing that deep in my heart |
| They’ll fall to ruin one day for making us part |
| I found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh |
| Those were the happiest days of my life |
| Like a break in the battle was your part, oh oh oh oh |
| In the wretched life of a lonely heart |
| Now we’re back on the train |
| Oh, back on the chain gang |
