Ball And Chain ( In Album Cheaper Thrills ) Lyrics

Ball And Chain ( In Album Cheaper Thrills )

Sittin' down by my window,
Just lookin' out at the rain, at the rain
I
said I'm sittin' down by my window,
Just lookin' out at the rain.
You
know somethin' came along, grabbed a hold of me,
Felt just like a ball and
chain.

And I say, oh, oh, oh, hon',
Why does every thing go wrong
?
It all goes wrong.
And I say, oh, now tell me why,
Does every thing
go wrong, all wrong.
Say, here you gone today, an' I wanted to love
you
For so long.

Love's got a hold on me, baby,
Feels just like a
ball and chain, hmm hmm hmm.
Oh, love's got a hold on me, baby,
Feels
just like a ball and chain.
And I don't know why the man I'm lovin'
Wanna
leave me in so much pain.

And I say, oh oh oh, hon', tell me why,
Tell
me why, tell me why, oh tell me why, why, why.
And I say, oh, honey why, why,
oh why, tell me why.
I thought our love would last
Honey, gonna last,
last
Till the day I die.

And I say oh, whoa, whoa, hon'
It ain't
fair, it ain't fair what you can do,
What you can do, Lord.
And I say oh
whoa,
Lord, it ain't fair, it ain't fair what you can do, Lord, you can
do.
Oh suddenly you broke my heart
Oh when I was givin' my love to
you.

Sittin' down by my window,
Just lookin' out at the rain.
I
said I'm sittin' down by my window,
Just lookin' out at the
rain.
Somethin' came along, grabbed a hold of me,
Felt just like a ball
and chain.

And I say oh, hon this can't be
This can't be all in vain,
no, no, no.
And I say whoa, whoa, this can't be,
Honey, it can't be all in
vain,
Hope there is someone that could tell me
Hon', tell me why love is
like
A ball and chain.
