Chains And Things

Woke up this morning
after another one of those crazy dreams
oh nothing is going right this morning
the whole world is wrong it seems
oh I guess itÞÇþ the chain that bind me
I canÞÇû shake it loose these chains and things

Got to work this morning
seems like everything is lost
I got a cold hearted wrong doing woman
and a slave driving ball
I canÞÇû loose these chains that bind me
canÞÇû shake them loose these chains and things
just canÞÇû loose these chains and things

Well you talk about hard luck and trouble
seems to be my middle name
all the odds are against me
yes I can only play a losing game
these chains that bind me
canÞÇû lose these chains and things
just canÞÇû loose these chains and things
Oh I would pack up and leave today people
but I ainÞÇû got nowhere to go
ainÞÇû got money to buy a ticket
and I donÞÇû feel like walking anymore
these chains that bind me
I canÞÇû lose
I canÞÇû lose these chains and things
