Charlie Landsborough - Long And Heavy Chain lyrics

Your hunger after money

Your parents agree

The things you don't require

You kid yourself you need

Neglect the flower of love

Give your worship to the weed

Your just adding links to a long and heavy chain

The selfishness that drives

So much of what you do

That a fixes your attention

Completely up on you

Your record is take away much more than your due

Your just adding links to a long and heavy chain

A heavy chain gets longer all the time

What should be easy going

Turns into a mountain climb

A heavy chain gets heavier

Day by day

It keeps you anchored to the ground

So that your heart cant fly a way

The whiskey and the women

You use to blow your mind

Are deadly on their own

And double deadly when combined

They satisfy your senses but leave your soul behind

Your just adding links to a long and heavy chain

A heavy chain gets longer all the time

What should be easy going

Turns into a mountain climb

The heavy chain gets heavier

Day by day

It keeps you anchored to the ground

So that your heart cant fly a way

A heavy chain gets longer all the time

What should be easy going

Turns into a mountain climb

A heavy chain gets heavier

Day by day

It keeps you anchored to the ground

So that your heart cant fly a way

Your hunger after money

The whiskey and the women

It's a long and heavy chain

Such a long and heavy chain
