Do Right Woman, Do Right Man
Take her to heart
And she'll love you forever
And nobody can make her do wrong
But take her for granted, leaving your love unshown
Makes will power weak and temptation strong
A woman's only human
This you should understand
She's not just a plaything
She's flesh and blood, just like her man
And if you want a do right all day woman
You've gotta be a do right all night man

Chain Of Fools
Chain chain chains
"echo"
Chain chain chains
"echo"
Chain chain chai-iai-iai-iai yeah
Chain of fools
For five long years
I thought you were my man
But I found out
I'm just a link in your chain
You got me where you want me
"got me where you want me"
You got your fool
You treated me mean
Oh babe you treated me cruel
Chain chain chains
echo
chain of fools
Now every chain
Has got a weak link
I might be weak child
Oh but I gave you strength
OOh OOh
Now you tell me to leave you alone
My Popa said, come on home
My doctor says, take it easy
But your lovin' is a much too strong
I'm wedded to ya
Chain chain chains
"echo"
Chain chain chains
"echo"
Chain chain chai-iai-iai-iai yeah
chain of fools
One of these mornings
That chain is goin'a break
But up until the-hen
I'm goin'a take all I can take
Chain chain chains
echo
Chain chain chains
echo
Chain chain chai-iai-iai-iai yeah
chain of fools
Chain chain chains
echo
Chain chain chains
echo
Chain chain chai-iai-iai-iai yeah
chain of fools
Chain chain chains.

had posted the lyrics to Do Right Woman and Chain of Fools. I don't
want this to sound mean or anything, but The Commitments were a cover
band. All the songs on the soundtrack, as far as I can tell, are
originally done by other people. Did you check the International Lyrics
Server under the song titles? You may also have luck with Lyrics
World. Lyrics World has a slightly better "oldies" selection. Also,
there was a second soundtrack that came out because the first one was so
popular and didn't have all the songs that were included in the movie.
Here is a complete list of songs. I've included the artist most
associated with the song to help you find the lyrics at
