Album: A Shot of Whiskey and a Prayer

Chain Gang

(D. Morgan/S. Allen Davis/B. Lee Springfield)

Chain gang, chain gang
Oh, turn me loose
Why don't you set me free
Of heartache and blues
Well, he's gone, he's gone
I can't stand the pain
Set me free
Turn me loose
Chain gang, chain gang

Well, I'm g-u-i-l-t-y
Guilty of a heart that breaks
Darlin', I loved you, but you said goodbye
You left me shackled to an old heartache

Chain gang, chain gang
Oh, turn me loose
Why don't you set me free
Of heartache and blues
Well, he's gone, he's gone
I can't stand the pain
Set me free
Turn me loose
Chain gang, chain gang

All day in, all day out
Darlin', I'm just doin' time
I'm sentenced to life without you
Baby, it's a doggone crime

Well, he's gone, he's gone
I can't stand the pain
Set me free
Turn me loose
Chain gang, chain gang

Set me free
Turn me loose
Chain gang, chain gang
