Shackled and Drawn Lyrics

Capo: 1
| rhythm | | |
Gray morning light spits through the shade
Another day older and closer to the grave
I'm closer to the grave and come the dawn
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
Shackled and drawn, shackled and drawn
Pick up the rock son, carry it on
We're trudging through the dark in a world gone wrong
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
I always loved the feel of sweat on my shirt
Stand back son and let a man work
Let a man work, is that so wrong
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
Shackled and drawn, shackled and drawn
Pick up the rock son, carry it on
What's a poor boy to do in a world gone wrong
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
Freedom son's a dirty shirt
The sun on my face and my shovel in the dirt
The shovel in the dirt keeps the devil gone
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
Shackled and drawn, shackled and drawn
Pick up the rock son, carry it on
What's a poor boy to do but keep singing his song
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
Gambling man rolls the dice, working man pays the bill
It's still fat and easy up on Banker's Hill
Up on Banker's Hill the party's going strong (3/4)
Down here below we're shackled and drawn
Shackled and drawn, shackled and drawn
Pick up the rock son, carry it on
Trudging through the dark in a world gone wrong
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
Shackled and drawn, shackled and drawn
Pick up the rock son, carry it on
What's a poor boy to do but keep singing his song
I woke up this morning shackled and drawn
