Lyrics

Locked Up In Chains (Kuss/Saretsky)

I gotta wife I got two kids
I gotta mortgage man it don?t quit
Feels like I?ve been slavin? for so long now
Wake up when it?s morning ? work whistle calls
I get away with what I can or what the boss man allows

But if you look into my eyes ? oh whoa you can see some pain
Look deeper in my heart ? can?t you see I?m locked up in chains
Locked up in chains

I look back I was young
Worries I had none
I was told just how a grown up man?s supposed to be
He?s got vision he?s got dreams but it ain?t nothin? like it seems
Most of all he?s got responsibilities

Chorus

It ended just last night
And it was over in a fight
I left my wife my family ? I had to choose
Outside I look fine ? inside it?s just a matter of time
Can?t control my swellin? soul ? I can?t be excused

Chorus
