- These Chains Lyrics

These chains

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

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

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

Down the hole there?s a window, you can barely see through 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
