Description: Pretenders - Back on the Chain Gang from the album Learning to Crawl I found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh What hijacked my world that night To a place in the past We've been cast out of? oh oh oh oh Now we're back in the fight We're back on the train Oh, back on the chain gang A circumstance beyond our control, oh oh oh oh The phone, the tv and the news of the world Got in the house like a pigeon from hell, oh oh oh oh Threw sand in our eyes and descended like flies Put us back on the train Oh, back on the chain gang The powers that be That force us to live like we do Bring me to my knees When I see what they've done to you But I'll die as I stand here today Knowing that deep in my heart They'll fall to ruin one day For making us part I found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh Those were the happiest days of my life Like a break in the battle was your part, oh oh oh oh In the wretched life of a lonely heart Now we're back on the train Oh, back on the chain gang

mharvill8674 ::: Favorites "The song was originally going to be about Ray Davies, leader of the band The Kinks. Hynde and Davies were a couple and had a daughter together, but the meaning of the song changed after James Honeyman-Scott, the Pretenders guitarist, died of a drug overdose at the age of 26 in 1982. Hynde tears up when performing the song live"-wiki 07-07-22 23:34:45 _____________________________________________________
hovhaness ::: Favorites Yes She kicked Farndon out & brought in Tony Butler, who wrote & played the wicked bassline on this track.. he would later go on to form the band Big Country.. This is a great track.. Rhythmically this album is genius... So tight.. 07-07-23 02:44:16 _____________________________________________________
