Chain of fools


For five long years
I thought you were my man
But I found out
I'm just a link in your chain


You got me where you want me
I ain't nothin' but your fool
Ya treated me mean
Oh you treated me cruel


Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools


Every chain, has got a weak link
I might be weak yeah
But I'll give you strength
Oh, hey


You told me to leave you alone
My father said, "Come on home"
My doctor said, "Take it easy"
Oh but your lovin' is much too strong
I'm added to your


Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chai-i-in
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools


One of these mornings
The chain is gonna break
But up until the day
I'm gonna take all I can take, oh hey


Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain, chain, chai-i-in
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools


Chain, chain, chai-i-in
Chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain, chai-i-in
Chain of fools
