For five long years
I thought you were my man
But I found out I'm just a link in your chain
You got me where you want me
I ain't nothing but your fool
You treated me mean
Oh, you treated me cruel
Every chain has got a weak link
I might be weak now, oh, but I'll give you strength
Oh, one of these mornings
The chain is gonna break
But up until then
I'm gonna take all I can take
For five long years
I thought you were my man
But I found out I'm just a link in your chain
You got me where you want me
I ain't nothing but your fool
You treated me mean
Oh, you treated me cruel
Every chain has got a weak link
I might be weak now, oh, but I'll give you strength
Oh, one of these mornings
The chain is gonna break
But up until then
I'm gonna take all I can take
For five long years
I thought you were my man
But I found out I'm just a link in your chain
You got me where you want me
I ain't nothing but your fool
You treated me mean
Oh, you treated me cruel
Every chain has got a weak link
I might be weak now, oh, but I'll give you strength
Oh, one of these mornings
The chain is gonna break
But up until then
I'm gonna take all I can take
