Ball and Chain

Sittin' here thinkin'

Damn, I'm getting a little older

Tryin' to find some piece of mind

Take the weight of the world off my shoulder

(Mmm) Got me drivin' down the highway

Tryin' to make it thru each and everyday (Everyday)

Take the block and all poverty

Take a truck and move my people down south with me

Trade my ball and chain in for a ticket

On a one way trip into Georgia

Big smiles, apple pies

My people, and blue skies

Tomatoes grow where I can pick 'em

On an open highway through Georgia

Green grass, tear stains

Shadow dancin' in the pourin' rain

Sittin' here lookin' in the mirror

Damn it's gettin' a little clearer

If I could paint a perfect picture

Would you dare take it with ya (Take it with ya, take it with ya)

Picture us whistlin' while fishin'

Picture us dancin' while romancin'

To a tune the belongs to me and you

My ball and chain we will all be free

Trade my ball and chain in for a ticket

On a one way trip into Georgia

Big smiles, apple pies

My people, and blue skies

Tomatoes grow where I can pick 'em

On an open highway through Georgia

Green grass, tear stains

Shadow dancin' in the pourin' rain

We can be dancin', steady romancin'

Whistlin' while we steady fishin' (Steady fishin')

Trade my ball and chain in for a ticket

On a one way trip into Georgia

Big smiles, apple pies

My people, and blue skies

Tomatoes grow where I can pick 'em

On an open highway through Georgia

Green grass, tear stains

Shadow dancin' in the pourin' rain
