mr. drout’s words:<\/p>\n

working all day in the sun
big bossman got a big shotgun
gonna take my shovel and cut off my big toe
if i can’t walk i won’t have to work no more<\/p>\n

countin’ every little move i take
countin’ every little rock i break
oh baby, think i’m gonna take it slow
if i can’t walk, i won’t have to work no more.<\/p>\n

scars on my ankles where these chains are hanging down
tired of draggin’ these chains all across the ground,
gonna take my shovel, cut off my big toe
if i can’t walk, i won’t have to work no more.<\/p>\n

three years down on an 8 to 10,
got a feelin’ i’ll be back again,
gonna take my shovel, cut off my big toe
if i can’t walk, i won’t have to work no more. <\/div>\n
