Like A Ball And Chain - Live
Well she, she's so alive
She's self-survived
She's so alive
And I'm, I'm just her toy
I'm overjoyed
To be her toy
She was standing on the corner, looking like a foreigner
So I tried to warn her, said watch out for the businessman
But she shook her head, and my face got red
She turned and said that I better find another friend
So how can I compete
As time holds her down
By her reckless feet
Like a ball and chain
A ball and chain
She's in my veins
She's in my veins
I ain't the same
Since I learned her name
She's like a ball and chain
Now I, I looked around
And it's a crazy town
If you look around
But she, she loves the sound
Of this crazy town
She loves the sound
Well I was at the wheel of an automobile
When I thought that I could steal her away for a Sunday drive
But she told me no, said she didn't want to go
My heart said no, and I felt like a fool inside
So how can I persuade
I was born too soft to be
In love this way
Like a ball and chain
Like a ball and chain
She's in my veins
She's in my veins
I ain't the same
Since I heard her name
She's like a ball and chain
A ball and chain
Like a ball and chain
Like a ball and chain
I can't tame
Her wicked game
I ain't the same
Since I heard her name
She's like a ball and chain
She's self-survived
She's so alive
And I'm, I'm just her toy
I'm overjoyed
To be her toy
She was standing on the corner, looking like a foreigner
So I tried to warn her, said watch out for the businessman
But she shook her head, and my face got red
She turned and said that I better find another friend
So how can I compete
As time holds her down
By her reckless feet
Like a ball and chain
A ball and chain
She's in my veins
She's in my veins
I ain't the same
Since I learned her name
She's like a ball and chain
Now I, I looked around
And it's a crazy town
If you look around
But she, she loves the sound
Of this crazy town
She loves the sound
Well I was at the wheel of an automobile
When I thought that I could steal her away for a Sunday drive
But she told me no, said she didn't want to go
My heart said no, and I felt like a fool inside
So how can I persuade
I was born too soft to be
In love this way
Like a ball and chain
Like a ball and chain
She's in my veins
She's in my veins
I ain't the same
Since I heard her name
She's like a ball and chain
A ball and chain
Like a ball and chain
Like a ball and chain
I can't tame
Her wicked game
I ain't the same
Since I heard her name
She's like a ball and chain
