Oops, sorry WB, just re-read the Q and I guess you know all that and are really looking for the 70s/80 version.
Question Author
i knew the gofin king /cookies and beatles cover .the version i heard was a medley on the b side of some 70s or 8os thing im not even sure if the b side was sample of upcoming album or just the group showing off their skills
some kinda vanilla 50s cover group ie roman holiday or coast to coast kinda thing neither of them by the way
It's a song by Carole king.
If u don't know a song u can go to a search engine put " " marks around the lyrics you do know then type the words lyrics and it should show bring u sites with both the lyrics and who preforms it.(if you have the lyrics right that is) That's what I did for your question.

This is the whole lyrics to the song. Hope it's the one you were looking for.
Chains, my baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind that you can see
Whoa, it's chains of love got a hold on me, yeah

Chains, well, I can't break away from these chains
Can't run around
'Cause I'm not free
Whoa, these chains of love won't let me be, yeah

Now believe me when I tell you
I think you're fine
I'd like to hold you
But I can't break away from all of these chains

My baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind that you can see
Whoa, it's chains of love got a hold on me, yeah

I wanna tell you, pretty baby
Your lips look sweet
I'd like to kiss them
But I can't break away from all these chains

My baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind that you can see
Whoa, it's chains of love got a hold on me, yeah

My baby's got me locked up in chains
And they ain't the kind that you can see
Whoa, it's chains of love got a hold on me, yeah

Chains, chains of love
Chains of love
Chains of love
Oh, these chains of love got a hold on me
You could try The Beach Boys. Brian Wilson, who wrote a couple of songs for a girl group called The Honeys back in the 60s. Other than that, The Cookies are the only one I know.
