Paragraph Lyric
On this old rock pile with a ball and chain
They call me by a number not a name, Lord, Lord
Gotta do my time, gotta do my time
With an aching heart and a worried mind

When that old judge looked down and smiled
Said I'll put you on that good road for a while, Lord, Lord
Gotta do my time, gotta do my time
With an aching heart and a worried mind

You can hear my hammer, you can hear my song
I'm gonna swing it like John Henry all day long, Lord, Lord
Gotta do my time, gotta do my time
With an aching heart and a worried mind

It won't be long, just a few more days
I'll settle down and quit my rowdy ways, Lord, Lord
With that gal of mine, with that gal of mine
She'll be waitin' for me when I've done my time
On this old rock pile with a ball and chain   They call me by a number not a name, Lord, Lord   Gotta do my time, gotta do my time   With an aching heart and a worried mind      When that old judge looked down and smiled   Said I'll put you on that good road for a while, Lord, Lord   Gotta do my time, gotta do my time   With an aching heart and a worried mind      You can hear my hammer, you can hear my song   I'm gonna swing it like John Henry all day long, Lord, Lord   Gotta do my time, gotta do my time   With an aching heart and a worried mind      It won't be long, just a few more days   I'll settle down and quit my rowdy ways, Lord, Lord   With that gal of mine, with that gal of mine   She'll be waitin' for me when I've done my time
