Lyrics Chain of Fools - Nina Simone, Aretha Franklin

Chain of Fools

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
