Roger Clyne and The Peacemakers
"Tow Chain"
Don't apologize
I've finally realized
That I've been towing the line for you for too long
So, Baby now I know
why we were movin' so slow
'Cause you never meant to go with me at all, no
So if it's all the same to you
I'll tell you what I ain't going to do, no more
I ain't gonna be a tow chain
I ain't into that whole beast of burden thing
I got my boots, and baby, they're made for walking
We're out of cahoots, still you keep on talking
And I ain't going to be your tow chain
You know I never complained
when you were jerkin' my chain
But you never helped me tow the load
Then I found out your plan to tie down your man
And now I'm cutting the ropes
If it's all the same to you
I'll tell you what I ain't gonna do, no more
I ain't gonna be your tow chain
I ain't into that whole beast of burden thing
I got my boots, and, baby, they're made for walking
We're out of cahoots, still you keep on talking
And I ain't going to be a tow chain
So don't apologize
I've finally realized
that I've been towing the line for you for too long
Baby now I know
why we were movin' so slow
Baby you should know that you can go solo
If it's all the same to you
I'll tell you what I ain't gonna be, no more
I ain't gonna be your tow chain
I ain't into that whole beast of burden thing
I got my boots, and baby, they're made for walking
We're out of cahoots, still you keep on talking
And I ain't going to be your tow chain
I ain't gonna be your tow chain (REPEAT)
