For five long years
I thought you were my man
But I found out
I'm just a link in your chain
Oh, you got me where you want me
I ain't nothin' but your fool
You treated me mean
Oh, you treated me cruel

 

Chain, chain, chain
(Chain, chain, chain)
Chain of fools

Listen to the wind blow, watch the sun rise
Running in the shadows, damn your love, damn your lies

 

And if you don't love me now 
You will never love me again
I can still hear you saying
You would never break the chain (never break the chain)

Little darlin', it's been a long, cold, lonely winter
Little darlin', it feels like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun, doo-doo-doo-doo
Here comes the sun, and I say
It's alright

If you see him in the subway, he'll be down at the end of the car
Watching you move until he knows, he knows who you are
When you get off at your station alone, he'll know that you are

 

Know when you see him
Nothing can free him
Step aside, open wide
It's the Loner

I am a patriot
And I love my county
Because my country is all I know
I want to be with my family
The people who understand me
I've got nowhere else to go

 

And the river opens for the righteous
And the river opens for the righteous
And the river opens for the righteous

If you were falling, then I would catch you.
You need a light, I'd find a match.

Cause I love the way you say good morning.
And you take me the way I am.

If you are chilly, here take my sweater.
Your head is aching, I'll make it better.

Cause I love the way you call me baby.
And you take me the way I am.

I'd buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair.
Sew on patches to all you tear.

Cause I love you more than I could ever promise.
And you take me the way I am.
You take me the way I am.
You take me the way I am.

A quick timeout to share a story of a band playing happy hour at a local bar and doing a rendition of Clapton's Cocaine with alternate lyrics related to:

 

Propane

Romaine

Rogaine

 

Good times!

there was a local bar act I saw in Grand Island years ago with all kinds of alternate lyrics.  Unfortunately, the only one I can remember is "there's a skeeter on your peter, wh@ck it off,  wh@ck it off...there's a dozen on my cousin, I can hear the f'ers buzzin,  there's a skeeter on your peter, wh@ck it off

John Valby? I know those lyrics from him.

yes, does he still perform.  There was also Susie, Susie sit-in in a shoe shine shop...tailor shop.  So him once.  Still remember.

 

No clue if he still performs. Saw him  in the 80's - twice as an undergrad at my college and once with friends post grad, always a fun night. The post grad show was at a comedy club and recorded to VCR/DVD cuz someone we knew rented it and told us our table was in a close up crowd shot, LOL

I heard he sang a good song,

I heard he had a style

And so I came to see him,

to listen for a while

And there he was, this young boy,

a stranger to my eyes

 

Strumming my pain with his fingers

Singing my life with his words

Killing me softly with his song

Killing me softly with his song

Telling my whole life with his words

Killing me softly with his song

Looking right through you

She knows who you are

She's got see forever eyes

A spirit obsessed 

A vision possessed with universal inner sight

No stranger to love

She's had many men but none of them survived 

Her crystal excites so follow the light of her see forever eyes
