[B7]
[G] [B7] [E]
[E]On this old rock pile, with a ball and chain,
They call me by a number not a name, [E7]Lord, Lord.
[A]Gotta do my time, [A7]I gotta do my [E]time,
With an aching [B7]heart, and a worried [E]mind.
[E]When that old judge, looked down and smiled,
Said I'll put you up that river for a while, [E7]Lord, Lord.
[A]Gotta do my time, [A7]I gotta do my [E]time,
With an aching [B7]heart, and a worried [E]mind.

[B7] [G] [A7] [G] [B7] [E]
[E]You can hear my hammer, you can hear my song,
Gonna swing it like John Henry all day long [E7]Lord, Lord.
[A]Gotta do my time, [A7]I gotta do my [E]time,
With an aching [B7]heart, and a worried [E]mind.

[B7] [G] [A7] [G] [B7] [E]
[E]Well, now it won't be long, just a few more days,
I'll settle down and quit my rowdy ways, [E7]Lord, Lord.
[A]With that gal of mine, [A7]with that gal of [E]mine,
She's waited for [B7]me, while I've done my [E]time.
[G] [E]
