Back on the Chain Gang

Back on the Chain Gang I found a picture of you, oh It hijacked my world that night From a place in the past we've been cast out of, oh Now we're back in the fight Yes, we're back on the chain gang Whoa, back on the chain gang A circumstance beyond our control, oh The phone, the TV, and the news of the world Got in the house like a pigeon from hell, oh Sand in our eyes, descended like flies Yes, we're back on the chain gang Whoa, back on the chain gang The powers that be That force us to live like we do Bring me to my knees When I see what they've done to you But I'll die as I stand here today Knowing that deep in my heart They'll fall to ruin one day For making us part I found a picture of you, oh They were the happiest days of my life Like a break in the battle was your part, oh Lonely heart, lonely hearts Yes, we're back on the chain gang Whoa, back on the chain gang
