One night as I lay on my pillow,
Moonlight as bright as the dawn,
I saw a man a-walkin'
He had a long chain on
I heard his chains a-clankin'
They made a mournful sound
Welded around his body
Dragging along on the ground

Chorus:
He had a long chain on
He had a long chain on
He had a long chain on

He stood beside my window
He looked at me and he said
"I am so tired and hungry,
Give me a bite of your bread."
He didn't look like a robber
He didn't look like a thief
His voice was as soft as the moonlight
HIs face full of sorrow and grief

I went into my kitchen
Fetched him a bowl full of meat,
A drink and a pan of cold biscuits
That's what I gave him to eat
Though he was tired and hungry
A bright light came over his face
He bowed his head in the moonlight
He said a beautiful grace

I got my hammer and chisel
Offered to set him free
He looked at me and said sadly
"I guess we had best let it be."
When he had finished his supper
He thanked me again and again
Though it's been years since I've seen him
I still hear him draggin' his chain
