I'm Free (From the Chain Gang Now) - Jimmie Rodgers[00:00:00]
Written by:Herscher, Klein[00:00:00]
I got rid of the shackles that bound me[00:00:20]
And the guards were always around me[00:00:26]
Like a bird in the tree have found my liberty[00:00:31]
And I'm free from the chain gang now[00:00:36]
Long ago I was known and respected[00:00:41]
Then one day I was forcedly suspected[00:00:46]
And they put me in chains working out in the rain[00:00:52]
But I'm free from that chain gang now[00:00:57]
I know my mother's poor heart was broken[00:01:28]
'Cause she knew that an untruth was spoken[00:01:32]
There were tears on the mail that she sent me in jail[00:01:38]
But I'm free from the chain gang now[00:01:43]
All the years I was known by a number[00:01:48]
Were just years that I spent without slumber[00:01:53]
After long years of shame I have won back my name[00:01:59]
And I'm free from the chain gang now[00:02:04]
Now I'm goin' back home to another[00:02:34]
She's my sweetheart who's waiting with mother[00:02:40]
And I'll dry all the tears that's been shedding for years[00:02:45]
'Cause I'm free form the chain gang now[00:02:50]
