Şarkı Sözleri

I been workin the whole day long
On these railroad ties singin a sad, sad song
Down the track is a bad way to live
The boss mans whip is all hes got to give
And late at night in the twilight of the South
They put you in a cell and let the bulldogs out
The old cat down the way
Well hes singin out the blues
Cause hes got no one back home
Oh, somebody sighed
Next day comes they send you back out on the track
All that sweat be drippin down off your back
Everybodys singin a workin mans song
Hopin they dont have to feel the whip on their bone
The water boy slowly works his way around
A bucket full of swamp water weighin him down
Old Squezer Walker just fell out on the ground
And theyre draggin his body away
Oh, my, my, my

Well, theres talk around camp
That theres gonna be a fight
Old Razor Face and Willie Black
The meanest dudes in sight
Ones got a razor and the others got a knife
But only ones gonna walk out alive

Oh, baby, mama, get me out of here
Cant stand no more
This place is gonna be the death of me
Believe to my soul that I gotta be free
Theres only one way that its every gonna be
Thats when the angels come and take me away
Well, now

Oh, baby, mama, get me out of here

Believe to my soul that I gotta be free
Theres only one way that its every gonna be
Thats when the angels come and take me away
Well, now
