Kenny Rogers - These Chains lyrics
[Kenny Rogers - These Chains lyrics]
Being a free man
Doing what I can to get out of here
And these chains won't keep me
From seeing my freedom
Changing my name and starting over again
I was a fool for a good looking woman
'til I found out the hard way
There was some out of me
Now what else could I do
How could any one blame me
To stand in this smile and with
A gun in his hands
These chains won't keep me from
Being a free man
Doing what I can to get out of here
And these chains won't keep me
From seeing my freedom
Changing my name and starting over again
She had a known reputation but
I paid no attention
Good love and affection can
Make anything right
But judged no mercy for my infatuation
She said: killers are sinned boys
You've gotta pay the price
These chains won't keep me from
Being a free man
Doing what I can to get out of here
And these chains won't keep me
From seeing my freedom
Changing my name and starting over again
Down the hole there's a window
You can barely see thro' it
Deep in the night I see the lights of town
And started me thinking that
A mystical ladder
Is as high as these walls and
I'm climbing it run by run
These chains won't keep me from
Being a free man
Doing what I can to get out of here
And these chains won't keep me
From seeing my freedom
Changing my name and starting over again
