This was released on October 1970 on the lp Indianola Mississipi Seeds.… Read More
Woke up this morning
After another one of those crazy dreams
Oh, nothing is going right this morning
The whole world is wrong, it seems
Oh, I guess it's the chains that bind me
I can't shake 'em loose, these chains and things
Got to go to work this morning
Seems like everything is lost
I got a cold-hearted, wrong-doing woman
And a slave-driving boss
I can't lose these chains that bind me
Can't shake 'em loose, these chains and things
Mmm, just can't lose these chains and things
Well, you talk about hard luck and trouble,
Seems to be my middle name
All the odds against me
Yes, I can only play the losing game
These chains that bind me
Can't lose these chains and things
Mmm-mm, just can't lose these chains and things
Oh, I would pack up and leave today, people
But I ain't got nowhere to go
Ain't got no money to buy a ticket
And I don't feel like walking anymore
These chains that bind me
Oh, I can't lose, I can't lose these chains and things
