歌词
On this rock pile, with my ball and chain
They call me by a number, not a name, Lord, Lord
Gotta do my time, I gotta do my time
With an achin' heart, on that gal of mine
You can here my hammer, you can hear my saw
I'm gonna sing it like John Henry all day long Lord, Lord
Gotta do my time, I gotta do my time
With an achin' heart and that gal of mine
Then that old judge looked down and smiled
He said, "I put you on that river for a while", Lord, Lord
Gotta do my time, well with that gal of mine
She's waited for me while I've done my time
(Thank you very much!)
