Ball & Chain Van Morrison

[Verse 1]
I've been on this roller coaster just too many times
And always it seems like the blind keep on leading the blind
Tried to get them on the phone
Tried to find my way back home
Tried and failed and tried and failed again

[Pre-Chorus]
But baby, I don't want you 'cause you look so good
I don't want you 'cause I know I should
I don't want you to come in from the rain

[Chorus]
I want you to be my ball and chain
I want you to be my ball and chain

[Verse 2]
Ah, just lately I've been roaming from town to town
I've been setting 'em up, setting 'em up, and I've been knocking 'em down
I was born to live, it seems, a fugitive dream
Make things always better than they seem
And I stop and start and stop and start and stop and start again

[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, I don't want you for your money
I don't want you 'cause I love you, honey
I don't want you to ease this memory pain
