Lyrics:

Well, there's folks who sing songs about the prisons, the coal mines and the wars
I've got a song and a story I'd like to tell
For a long time now I've been knowin', on a long sad trip I'll goin'
And a Long Chain Charlie's gonna take me back to Moundsville

Well, a lotta new faces I see, yeah, but very few will recognize me
And there's so many dreams in life I can't fulfill
What I'd give just now to be free, death row's calling 1033
And the Long Chain Charlie out me off last night in Moundsville

How my mind does wander back to my momma and that tumbled down shack
To the blissfull days when mommma taught us how to pray
But each night in my cell I cry, salvation has passed me by
And the Long Chain Charlie's gonna take me back to Moundsville

Well, the preacher just left my cell, well he talked about heaven and a hell
He talked about a way in life I could have been free
But I'll never be free no more, death row's calling 1034
I just wanna forget about that Long Chain Charlie in Moundsville
Well, I'll never more ride that Long Chain Charlie in Moundsville
