Losing The Dogs - Mono
Ah, let me hear ya now alright
Well, you work a day and sweat
But try to earn your bread
Well, ya gotta work hard
Man knock yourself dead
Well, you want to drink of water
Man you went a kinda stopped
Well, the man says ya better work until ya drop
Well, you're working for the boss
Man all the day long
Chopping away my life
Every limb be wrong
Hey, take it off
Baby take it off
You gotta make the walk
Gotta make it soon
Well, I only gonna wait
Till there ain't no moon
Hey, you gotta lose the dogs
A-keep a-running on
When ya wake up in the morning
Baby I'll be gone
Well. to live a life of ease
Where there ain't no pain
You're never gonna get me on the farm again
I ain't working like a dog
Well, for nobody alright
Well, yeah nothing but a slave gang
Oh, oh, yeah alright
I'm gonna tell ya something
Well, lying in the cell man
I'm thinking 'bout my wife
Last time I saw her
She was lying on my knife
Dragging her back
I tried to make a run
But they got me the next day
My world is only a cell
I'm wasting time away
Well, I don't know why I bother
Boy don't know why I care
The preacher's been to see me
I'm going to the chair ha, ha
See if I care burn me up
Oh, I'll get 'em back someday
No more work for me man
I won't have a care.
