Livin' On A Chain Gang
Skid Row

Turn on the tv, ґcause I got nowhere

To go

Seems that thereґs a little trouble down

In Mexico

A 13-year-old boy robs a store

So he can eat

And they got him doing time while

Killers walk the streets


A hungry politician is the wolf thatґs

At the door

Hell-bent on submission and feedinґ

On the poor

We could stare into the sun if we would

Open up our eyes

But we paint ourselves into a corner

Colored in white lies


Busted on a rockpile - getting

Dusted in the heat

Shackled to the system - and

Dragginґ my feet


Iґm riding on a breakdown - another

Whiteknuckled shakedown

Feels like Iґm livinґ on a chain gang

Iґm riding on a breakdown - a suicidal

Shakedown

Feels like Iґm on a chain gang


A con manґs intuition can wash

Your sins away

Send your contribution and heґll save

Your soul today

What can he know, has he been

Through hell and back

He takes the cash and drives it home in

A brand new Cadillac


Spitting at the guard dog, burning

In his wicked deal

Screaminґ down the railroad with

No one at the wheel


Iґm riding on a breakdown - another

Whiteknuckled shakedown

Feels like Iґm livinґ on a chain gang

Iґm riding on a breakdown - a suicidal

Shakedown

Feels like Iґm on a chain gang


Faith healinґ, superstition

Cold-blooded criminal mind

Getting off on high position

Hey brother can you spare a dime

To get me off this slaughter line


Iґm riding on a breakdown - another

Whiteknuckled shakedown

Feels like Iґm livinґ on a chain gang

Iґm riding on a breakdown - a suicidal

Shakedown

Feels like Iґm on a chain gang


Iґm riding on a breakdown - another

Whiteknuckled shakedown

Feels like Iґm livinґ on a chain gang

Iґm riding on a breakdown - a suicidal

Shakedown

Feels like Iґm on a chain gang
