Chains And Things - B.B. King

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

Got to work this morning

Seems like everything is lost

I got a cold hearted wrong doing woman

And a slave driving boss

I can’t loose these chains that bind me

Can’t shake them loose these chains and things

Just can’t loose these chains and things

Well you talk about hard luck and trouble

Seems to be my middle name

All the odds are against me

Yes I can only play a losing game

These chains that bind me

Can’t lose these chains and things

Just can’t loose these chains and things

Oh I would pack up and leave today people

But I ain’t got nowhere to go

Ain’t got 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
