Bring me to my knees
But I’ll die as I stand here today
For making us part
From a place in the past
Got in the house like a pigeon from hell,
I found a picture of you,
I found a picture of you,
Now we’re back in the fight
Oh, back on the chain gang
Oh, back on the chain gang
Sand in our eyes and descended like flies
That force us to live like we do
That hijacked my world that night
The phone, the tv and the news of the world
The powers that be
They’ll fall to ruin one day
We’ve been cast out of?
When I see what they’ve done to you
Yes we're back on the chain gang
Yes we're back on the chain gang
Yes, we're back on the chain gang
