Kenny Rogers These Chains Lyrics

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
