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 walls      Not 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 you      Ain't no hammer, ain't no rock   Can break the lock on these chains   Chains of love      I 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 care      Ain'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 chains      Ain't no how to get out   Outta these chains of love   Chains of love      Look at the clock   So much time   I looked again and the hands are stopped      Ain'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 chains      Ain't no how to get out   Outta these chains of love   Chains of love   Outta these chains of love   Chains of love
