歌曲歌詞
I been workin’ the whole day long
On these railroad ties singin’ a sad sad song
Down it track is a bad way to live
The boss man’s whip is all he’s 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 he’s singin’ out the blues
’Cause he’s 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
Everybody’s singin’ a workin’ man’s song
Hopin’ they don’t 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 Squeezer Walker just fell out on the ground
And they’re draggin’ his body away
Oh my my my
Well there’s talk around camp
That there’s gonna be a fight
Old Razor Face and Willie Black
The meanest dudes in sight
One’s got a razor and the other’s got a knife
But only one’s gonna walk out alive
Oh baby mama get me out of here
Can’t stand no more
This place is gonna be the death of me
Believe to my soul that I gotta be free
There’s only one way that it’s every gonna be
That’s when the angels come and take me away
Well now yes I’d better be
Oh babe mama get me out of here
I just can’t stand no more
This place is gonna be the death of me
Believe to my soul that I gotta be free
There’s only one way that it’s every gonna be
That’s when the angels come and take me away
Oh my my my
