Chain of Fools - Nina Simone, Aretha Franklin

For five long years I thought you were my lady

But I found out

I’m just a link in your chain

You got me where you want me

I nothing but your fool

You treated me mean yeah

You treated me cruel

Chain chain chain

Chain of fools

Every chain has a weak link I might be weak

But I’ll give you strength

You told me to leave you alone

My mama said come on home

I try to take it slow

But your love is too strong

Chain chain chain

Chain of fools

One of these days the chain is gonna break

But up until then

I’m gonna take all I can take

Chain chain chain

Chain of fools

Add it to your chain

Chain chain chain

Chain of fools
