I'm a prisoner here by your design
And the key to the door
Oh, I can't find
Closin' in here, baby, are these four wallsNot even a dime will you give me to make my one call
I don't know what a man's supposed to do
When the joy is gone
Gone away from youAin't no hammer, ain't no rock
Can break the lock on these chains
Chains of loveI drag down the boulevard, this ball of steel
And the ties that bind me, girl, are all too real
I gotta go free like a bird up in the air
Like a child in the schoolyard without a careAin't no hammer, ain't no rock
Can break the lock on these chains
Ain't no spell, none I can tell
Can take away these chainsAin't no how to get out
Outta these chains of love
Chains of loveLook at the clock
So much time
I looked again and the hands are stoppedAin't no hammer, ain't no rock
Can break the lock on these chains
Ain't no spell, none I can tell
Can take away these chainsAin't no how to get out
Outta these chains of love
Chains of love
Outta these chains of love
Chains of love
