Link in the Chain Lyrics

I'm going to work now just like I do everyday

Got to do what I can again and again to bring home my pay

But I'm only a number without a name or a face

And if I never came back I know it's a fact somebody'd be in my place

We're here and we're gone in the blink of an eye

Life ain't no fun when no one even knows your alive

Tell you that's why I don't want to be a

Link in the chain just another spoke in the wheel

Don't want to be a small grain of sand on the beaches of life

But lately that's how I feel

Don't want to be a flash in the pan

Just another face in the crowd

I don't want to get lost in the stream while life is passing me by

And I'm just sinking down

I'm getting nowhere fast going round and round again

Like a link in the chain

I met a new woman and we were having so much fun

Every night and day she took my breath away I thought she was the one

Then I discovered much to my surprise

She was one of those girls who gives it a whirl with just about every guy

She said so many men and so little time

I said don't be mistaken babe but I won't be the kind to stand in line

Don't want to be a

Link in the chain just another spoke in the wheel

Don't want to be a small grain of sand on the beaches of life

But lately that's how I feel

Don't want to be a flash in the pan

Just another face in the crowd

I don't want to get lost in the stream while life is passing me by

And I'm just sinking down

It seems all my life my only real claim to fame is to be a

Like a link in the chain

It's driving me crazy and I just can't go on

To think when I'm pushing up daises no one will even know I'm gone

It seems so wrong wrong
