Verse 1
Eb
D
James Jay, James Jay
G
I was just a kid, a -roamin' around
A
D
Travelin' through a little old town
When a sheriff walked up and said,
G
come with me
A
D
You're broke and, that's vagrancy
G
Just a carefree lad who loved to roam
A
D
And how I wish I had stayed at home
For the way that I'm treated
G
I would rather hang
A
D
It's no life for living on a chain gang
G
D
I dig that ditch, I chop that corn
A
D
And curse the day that I was born
G
I believe it's better for a man to hang
A
D
Than work like a dog on a chain gang
Eb
D
Change, change, change, change
G
Well the God stands there with a great big gun
A
D
I bet he'd love to see me run
G
And I guess I probably will someday
A
D
I'd rather be dead than to live this way
G
He looks well fed and he's six feet tall
A
D
And he's the meanest of us all
For he cracks that whip
G
and he swings that cane
A
I reckon the sun must have
D
touched his brain
G
D
I dig that ditch, I chop that corn
A
D
And curse the day that I was born
G
I believe it's better for a man to hang
A
D
Than work like a dog on a chain gang
Eb
D
Ching, ching, ching, ching, ching
I got a gal back home
G
who's true and kind
A
D
And she's been a -waitin' a long, long time
G
I wrote and told her, forget my name
A
D
For I'll never lose this ching, ching, ching
G
Dear heaven, deliver me from this hole
A
D
Where a man can lose his mind and soul
Where the flesh gets weak,
G
and the back gets broke
A
D
And there's no cause to laugh and joke
G
D
I dig that ditch, I chop that corn
A
D
And curse the day that I was born
G
I believe it's better for a man to hang
A
D
Than work like a dog on a chain gang
A
D
Work like a dog on a chain gang
A
D
Work like a dog on a chain gang
A
D
Work like a dog on a chain gang
A
D
Worker like a dog on a chain gang
A
D
Worker like a dog on a chain gang
