Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 it's the chain that bind me
I can't shake it loose, these chains and things
[Verse 2]
Got to go to work this morning
Seems like everything is lost
I got a cold hearted, wrong doing woman and a slave driving ball
I can't loose these chains that bind me
Can't shake 'em loose, these chains and things
Just can't lose these chains and things
[Verse 3]
Well, you talk about hard luck and trouble
Seems to be my middle name
All the odds against me, yes, I can only play a losing game
These chains that bind me
Can't loose these chains and things
Just can't lose these chains and things
[Verse 4]
Oh, I would pack up and leave today, people
But I ain't got nowhere to go
Ain't got no money to buy a ticket
And I don't feel like walking anymore
These chains that bind me
Oh, I can't lose, I can't lose these chains and things
