Good Time Ball and Chain

There my partner goes

Cussing me out over crokinole

Well it was not my game maybe had a little to much to drink

And in the end well no one cares

Take a damn sled down the basement stairs

Put on a record and roll to the sound of the rhythm they make

To the sound of the rhythm they make

Things have changed and dammit they are not the same

But not enough to change my good time ball and chain

I can't complain it's holding me to my veins

I've been down, I've been out, it's coming back again

I've been bound to that good time ball and chain

Oh when duty calls

Take another bottle from off the wall

Head to the barn tonight and pray to god no one falls out

Roxxanne's getting paid, there's a little mama there on the stage

Someone's getting whipped tonight

As she takes off the willing man's belt

As she takes off that willing man's belt

And things have changed and dammit they are not the same

But not enough to change my good time ball and chain

I can't complain it's holding me to my veins

I've been down I've been out it's coming back again

I've been bound to that good time ball and chain

I can't complain it's holding me to the veins

I've been down I've been out it's coming back again

I've been bound to that good time ball and chain

I've been the same since I was given my name

I've been down I've been out it's coming back again

I've been bound to that good time ball and chain

I can't complain it's holding me to my veins

I've been down I've been out it's coming back again

I've been bound to that good time ball and chain
