Chains

Oh when I was just a boy

In the town I call my home

I never thought that life could be so cruel

I could never seem to find

What I Thought was peace of mind

It wasn’t long before I broke the rules

Oh my lord, I’m in chains

Well, I found what I’m looking for

Early one night

Working for the man

I was doing all right

Every night I’d steal and I’d borrow

Yes, I did find what I was searching for

But never got much closer

Now I’m standing in the line

Just doing my time

Thinking about my perfect crime

Oh my lord, I’m in chains

And it’s all over now

Oh yeah

I’m in chains, chains, chains

I’m in chains

I was born in the summertime , baby

I’m still waiting for the sun to shine

I’ve been wasting my life

It cuts like a knife

I won’t make the same mistake twice

I can’t seem to find

What I Thought was peace of mind

Standing in the line

Just doing my time

Thinking about my perfect crime

Oh yeah

I’m in chains, chains, chains

I’m in chains, chains, chains

I was standing in the line

Doing all my time

Everybody knows it’s the

Rave about you baby

Half a dozen crazy

Everytime you go it’s a thin thin line

I could never find

What I thought was peace of mind

But I’ve searched this town

For something out there

One of these days I’ll make it I swear

Oh my lord I’m in chains, chains, chains

I’m in chains, chains, chains

Oh my lord I’m in chains, chains, chains

I’m in chains, chains, chains

Come on, pretty baby, won’t you take me home?

Because I’m still in chains and I’m alone
