Jack of Diamonds is a gambling man

He played the tables whenever he can

Take some advice boy stay clean stay out of his way

Little Jeannie is a dancing queen

She's been shaking it since she was sixteen

Skips across the tables acting out her passion play



* It wasn't for money, it's only a chance

You take a gamble, got shot for romance

Chains, chains pulling you down

Chain of life that turns the world around

Chains chains pulling you down

Chain of life that turns the world around



Without a warning Jeannie took off one night

Jack got so mean boy, he just had to fight

He died on the floor someone else evens the score

Back on the tables Jeannie's romance had died

That one look of love had told her a lie

And for her there's no waves crashing on seashores



* Repeat



[INSTRUMENTAL]



Chains chains...chains chains...
