Ball and Chain

Sitting down by my window

Honey, looking out at the rain

Lord, Lord, Lord, sitting down by my window

Baby, looking out at the rain

Something came along, grabbed a hold of me

And it felt just like a ball and chain

Honey, that's exactly what it felt like

Honey, just dragging me down

And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now hun, tell me why

Why does every single little tiny thing I hold on goes wrong?

Yeah it all goes wrong, yeah

And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now babe, tell me why

Why does every thing, every thing

Hey, here you gone today, I wanted to love you

Honey, I just wanted to hold you, I said, for so long

Yeah! Alright! Hey!

Love's got a hold on me, baby

Feels just like a ball and chain

Now, love's just dragging me down, baby, yeah

Feels like a ball and chain

I hope there's someone out there who could tell me

Why the man I love wants to leave me in so much pain

Yeah, maybe, maybe you could help me, come on, help me!

And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now hun, tell me why

Now tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me why, yeah

And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, when I ask you

When I need to know why, come on tell me why, hey hey hey

Here you've gone today

I wanted to love you and hold you

Until the day I die

I said whoa, whoa, whoa!!

And I say oh, whoa, whoa, no honey

It isn't fair, daddy it isn't fair what you do

I see what you're doing to me and you know it isn't fair

And I say oh, whoa whoa now baby

It isn't fair, now, now, now, what you do

I said hun it isn't fair what, hun it isn't fair what you do

Oh, here you gone today and all I ever wanted to do

Was to love you

Honey and I think there can be nothing wrong with that

Only it isn't wrong, no, no, no, no, no

And I say oh, whoa whoa, now baby

This can't be, no this can't be in vain

And I say no no no no no no no no, whoa!

And I say whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Now now now now now now now now now, no no, not in vain

Hey, hope there is someone that could tell me

Hun, tell me why

Just like a ball

Just like a ball

Ball
