Ball and Chain Big Brother and the Holding Company

[Intro]
Yeah! Alright!

[Chorus]
Sitting down by my window
Honey, looking out at the rain
Lord, Lord, Lord, sitting down by my window
Baby, looking out at the rain
Something came along, grabbed a hold of me
And it felt just like a ball and chain
Honey, that's exactly what it felt like
Honey, just dragging me down

[Verse]
And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now hun, tell me why
Why does every single little tiny thing I hold on goes wrong?
Yeah it all goes wrong, yeah
And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now babe, tell me why
Why does every thing, every thing
Hey, here you gone today, I wanted to love you
Honey, I just wanted to hold you, I said, for so long
Yeah! Alright! Hey!

Love's got a hold on me, baby
Feels just like a ball and chain
Now, love's just dragging me down, baby, yeah
Feels like a ball and chain
I hope there's someone out there who could tell me
Why the man I love wants to leave me in so much pain
Yeah, maybe, maybe you could help me, come on, help me!
