Rickie Lee Jones

Rickie Lee Jones (born November 8, 1954) is an American vocalist, musician, songwriter, and producer. Over the course of a career of over three decades, Jones has recorded in various musical styles including rock, R&B, blues, pop, soul, and jazz standards. Her songwriting has been characterized as "a blend of bravado and vulnerability [that] wavers on indefinable borders." She is also known for her unique singing style, especially in live performances. One concert reviewer, describing her rendering of "We Belong Together," states she "reached her apex, skating from swells into near screams into breathy whispers, from pontillist stacatto scats into brassy, trumpetlike bursts." more »

My baby's always crying,
My baby wants to see me cry, too.

Chain on my heart is going to break

'Cause every tear that falls in here
Is a dime for the Juke Box Fury
So punch it in
Shake the chain
And listen to the song you're playing
Shake the chain, 
Shake the chain
At everything I do
Just enough
Everything I wanted to
Just enough
Everything I put you through
Just enough to know
He don't want me
Oh, I think he's polorized
He don't know which way to go
Where would vou be otherwise?
Otherwise? 
Well, you know we could

Runaround
Because I can get this anyway
Runaround
I can get this anyway
Runaround
l can get this anyway

Light goes down
Somebody could break your heart
Light goes on
You could break somebody's heart
Chain on mv heart is going to break

Every time you try to make me cry
Listen to it now
Punch it in
Shake the chain
I can't take the tears
I can't take the tears
Shake the chain, shake the chain
At everything I do
Just enough
And everything I wanted to
Just enough
And everything I put you through
Just enough to know
He don't want me
Oh, you better wise up girl
You better get smart
You better hide your heart

He's a Runaround
And I could get this anyway
Runaround
I can get this anyway
Runaround
I can get it anyway

Take a deep breath
And break the chain
