These Chains Won′t Keep Me From Bein' A Free Man
Doin′ What I Can To Get Out Of Here
And These Chains Won't Keep Me From Seein' My FreedomChangin′ My Name And Startin′ Over Again

I Was A Fool For A Good Lookin' Woman
′Til I Found Out The Hard Way, There Were Some Out Of Me
Now What Else Could I Do? How Could Anyone Blame Me?
To Stand In This Smile And With A Gun In His Hands

These Chains Won't Keep Me From Bein′ A Free Man
Doin' What I Can To Get Out Of Here
And These Chains Won′t Keep Me From Seein' My Freedom
Changin' My Name And Startin′ Over Again

She Had A Known Reputation But I Paid No Attention
Good Love And Affection Can Make Anythin′ Right
But Judged No Mercy For My Infatuation
She Said Killings Are Sin Boy, You've Gotta Pay The Price

These Chains Won′t Keep Me From Bein' A Free Man
Doin′ What I Can To Get Out Of Here
And These Chains Won't Keep Me From Seein′ My Freedom
Changin' My Name And Startin' Over Again

Down The Hole There′s A Window
You Can Barely See Through It
Deep In The Night I See The Lights Of Town
And Started Me Thinkin′ That A Mystical Ladder
Is As High As These Walls And I'm Climbin′ It Rung By Rung

These Chains Won't Keep Me From Bein′ A Free Man
Doin' What I Can To Get Out Of Here
And These Chains Won′t Keep Me From Seein' My Freedom
Changin' My Name And Startin′ Over Again

These Chains Won′t Keep Me From Bein' A Free Man
Doin′ What I Can To Get Out Of Here
And These Chains Won't Keep Me From Seein′ My Freedom
Changin' My Name And Startin′ Over Again

These Chains Won't Keep Me To Start Over Again
