Ball and Chain
Sitting by my window
And I was looking out at the rain
Sitting by my window, baby
And I was sitting down looking out at the rain
You know something struck me
Clamped on to me just like
Just like a ball and chain
I said oh, oh, baby
Why you wanna do these all mean things to me?
I said oh, oh, baby
Why you wanna
Why you wanna do these all mean things to me?
Because you know I love you
And I'm so sick and tired
So sick and tired of being in misery
Hey, hey, ball and chain
I know you're gonna miss me, baby
Oh yes, you're gonna miss all those sweet things
Oh yes, I know you're gonna miss me, baby
Oh, I know you're gonna miss all those sweet things
And then you'll find that your whole life will be like mine
Oh Lord, wrapped up like a ball and chain
I said oh, oh, baby
Why you wanna do all these mean things to me?
I said oh, oh, baby
Why you wanna do all these mean things to me?
I know my love gonna last for you forever
It's gonna last
I said it's gonna last
Oh Great God almighty
Oh, for eternity
Oh, yeah
Ball and Chain
And I was looking out at the rain
Sitting by my window, baby
And I was sitting down looking out at the rain
You know something struck me
Clamped on to me just like
Just like a ball and chain
I said oh, oh, baby
Why you wanna do these all mean things to me?
I said oh, oh, baby
Why you wanna
Why you wanna do these all mean things to me?
Because you know I love you
And I'm so sick and tired
So sick and tired of being in misery
Hey, hey, ball and chain
I know you're gonna miss me, baby
Oh yes, you're gonna miss all those sweet things
Oh yes, I know you're gonna miss me, baby
Oh, I know you're gonna miss all those sweet things
And then you'll find that your whole life will be like mine
Oh Lord, wrapped up like a ball and chain
I said oh, oh, baby
Why you wanna do all these mean things to me?
I said oh, oh, baby
Why you wanna do all these mean things to me?
I know my love gonna last for you forever
It's gonna last
I said it's gonna last
Oh Great God almighty
Oh, for eternity
Oh, yeah
Ball and Chain
