A chain gang is a group of prisoners chained together to perform menial or physically challenging work as a form of punishment. Such punishment might include repairing buildings, building roads, or clearing land. This system existed primarily in the Southern United States, and by 1955 had largely been phased out nationwide, with Georgia among the last states to abandon the practice. North Carolina continued to use chain gangs into the 1970s

G C G I was shackled in chains in a cold freezin' rain. G G/Dish G but I'm free from the chain gang no. .G C G All the years I was known by a number. G G/C D how I kept my mind is a wonder. G C G But like a bird in a tree I got my liberty. G G/Dish G and I'm free from the chain gang now. G C G I got rid of the shackles that bound me. G G/C D and the guards that were always around me. G C G There were tears on the mail mother sent me in jail. G G/Dish G But I'm free from the chain gang now. G C G There were tears on the mail mother sent me in jail
