Aretha Franklin - Chain of Fools Lyrics

Well, darlings, let's delve into this soulful serenade of sorrow and sass. Our queen of soul is trapped in a loveless relationship, shackled by the chains of deceit. She's been fooled for five long years, thinking she was his one and only. Alas, she was just… Read more

Chain of Fools Lyrics

Oh it's the sound
Of a worried, a worried man
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
That's the sound of havin' a good time, mhmm
It's the sound of pain

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

Oh, for five years I thought you were my man
Chain of love
Oh holy man, for five years I thought you were my man
But I found out I'm, I'm just a link in your chain, ooh

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

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 child, but I'll give you strength

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

You told me to leave you alone
My father said come on home
My doctor said take it easy
Whole bunch of lovin' is much too strong
I'm added to your chain, chain, chain

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

Oh, one of these mornings the chain is gonna break
But up until then, yeah, I'm gonna take all I can take

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

Oh, chain, chain, chain
Chain, chain, chain
Oh, chain, chain, chain
Chain of fools

What is the Meaning of Chain of Fools?

Well, darlings, let's delve into this soulful serenade of sorrow and sass. Our queen of soul is trapped in a loveless relationship, shackled by the chains of deceit. She's been fooled for five long years, thinking she was his one and only. Alas, she was just another link in his chain of conquests. Yet there's an undercurrent of defiance here - she might be weak but she'll give him strength alright, probably a swift right hook! She's caught between voices telling her to leave or stay, but the addiction to this toxic love is too potent. However, every chain has a weak link and Aretha warns that one day it will break. So keep your ears peeled for the sound of snapping chains and a liberated woman walking away!
