On this old rock pile, with the 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 and a worried mind
When that old judge looked down at me
Said, I put you in that river for a while Lord, Lord
Gotta do my time, I gotta do my time
With an achin' heart and a worried mind
You can hear my hammer, you can hear my saw
Gonna swing it like John Henry all day long Lord, Lord
Gotta do my time, I gotta do my time
With an achin' heart and a worried mind
Well now it won't be long, just a few more days
I'll settle down [Incomprehensible] Lord, Lord
With that gal of mine, with that gal of mine
She's waited for me while I've done my time
