Lyrics

You got me locked up in chains
You got me locked up in chains
Sometimes I don't know my name
Sometimes I don't know my name
You got me locked up in chains
You got me locked up in chains
Sometimes I don't know my game
Sometimes I don't know my game
You got me locked up in chains
You got me locked up in chains
Sometimes I don't know my name
Sometimes I don't know my game
You got me locked up in chains
You got me locked up in chains
Sometimes I don't know my game
Chains
Chains
Oh, I'm a prisoner in cell block Y O U
Can't turn away and I don't know what to do
You treat me bad but my love keeps getting stronger
I can't escape and I can't hold out any longer
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in his chains
Sometimes I don't know how to play the game
My baby's got me locked up in his chains
Sometimes I just don't even know my name
You got me sittin' here, out of gear, a prisoner of your love
Chains
Chains
Chains
Chains
Oh, I'm a prisoner in your penitentiary
I've been convicted and my sentence is first degree
I might as well just put my numbers and my stripes on
'Cause I'll be here with you till all else but the hype is gone
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in his chains
Sometimes I just don't even know the game
My baby's got me locked up in his chains
Sometimes I just don't even know my name
You got me sitting here, out of gear, a prisoner of your love
Boy, I'm just a captive in your penitentiary
Might as well be Alcatraz, just throw away the key
Lock it up tight, show you right, it's all that I can do
Ball and chain it's all a game in cell block Y O U
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in his
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in his
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in his
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in his
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in his
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in his
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in his
Chains
Sometimes I just don't even know my name
You got me sitting here, out of gear, a prisoner of your love
Chains
Chains

Chains
Lock it up tight
Lock it up tight
Oh, I'm a prisoner of your love
Lock it up tight, show you right, locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, show you right, locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, show you right, locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, show you right, locking up my loving
Chains
Lock it up tight, show you right
Chains
Lock it up tight, show you right
Lock it up tight, locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, show you right locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, show you right locking up my loving
Chains, chains of love
Lock it up tight, chains of love
Chains, chains of love
Lock it up tight, chains of love
Lock it up tight, show you right, locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, show you right, locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, show you right, locking up my loving
Lock it up tight, show you right, locking up my loving
Chains

Lock it up tight, show you right, locking up my loving
Chains of love
Lock it up tight, show you right, locking up my loving
