Ten Ton Chain by Fred Eaglesmith Lyrics

A sunset shadow
You got no shades
A touch of the wheel and you’re off the highway
I'll come down to fetch you with my pretty machine
I’ll get you out with a ten ton chain

A ten ton chain coming out of the dark
With a ten ton chain around my heart
You could shake it like a snake
You could push it like a train
But you can’t break a ten ton chain

A ten ton chain coming out of the dark
With a ten ton chain around my heart
You could shake it like a snake
You could push it like a train
But you can’t break a ten ton chain

“I want water”
That’s what she said
A wreck on the dance floor
Or out on the lanes
But I’m out of the dark
I don't remember her name
You can’t break a ten ton chain
You can’t break a ten ton chain
A ten ton chain coming out of the dark
With a ten ton chain around my heart
