Chains Chains

(álbum: The Wild, The Willing And The Innocent - 1981)

Jack of Diamonds is a gambling man
He played the tables whenever he can
Take some advice boy, stay clean, stay out of his way
Little Jeannie is a dancing queen
She's been shaking it since she was sixteen
Skips across the tables, acting out her passion play

It wasn't for money, it's only a chance
You take a gamble, that shot for romance
Chains, chains pulling you down
Chain of love that turns the world around
Chains chains, pulling you down
Chain of love that turns the world around

Without a warning, Jeannie took off one night
Jack got so mean boy, he just had to fight
He died on the floor, someone else evens the score
Back on the tables, Jeannie's romance had died
That one look of love that told her a lie
And for her there's no wave crashing on seashores

It wasn't for money, it's only a chance
You take a gamble, that shot for romance
Chains, chains pulling you down
Chain of love that turns the world around
Chains chains, pulling you down
Chain of love that turns the world around

Chains, chains
Chains, chains
