Lyrics

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
