"Ball And Chain" lyrics
Do you believe I would take such a thing with me
And give it to a police man?
I wouldn't do that, mmhmm
I wouldn't do that
If I did that would you say, "Sir, come down and put the charge on me?"
I wouldn't do that, ooh
I wouldn't do that
I'm not a fool to hurt myself
But I was innocent to what they done to me
They were wrong, they were wrong
But give it to me one time (oh, give it to me, yeah)
Give it to me two times (1, 2)
Give it to me three times (1, 2, 3)
Give it to me four times (1, 2, 3, 4)
Oh, 5446, was my number, was my number now
Right now somebody else has that number
One more time. 5447 was my number, was my number now
Right now somebody else has that number
'Cause we're chillin' and we're chillin' into the club all night
We're chillin' and we're chillin' into the club all night
'Cause, hear the club, hear the beat, in the dog pound, DJ
Lord have his grilled cheese
Some jealous punk
Snuck up around my back
Tried to take a lovin' over me
Lord, I got into a fist fight
And wound up in jail all night
Give it to me one time (oh yes, ooh my pussy)
Give it to me - two times (1, 2)
Give it to me three time (1, 2, 3)
Give it to me four time (1, 2, 3, 4)
People listen up don't stand to near
I've got somethin' that you all should hear
All the lies, all the lies all the lies told to me
Form a little part of history
I was always taught boy meets girl
Fall in love get married and forget the world
Nine months later sweet baby's on the way
Kiss 'em on the cheek and life's okay
I don't feel no pain
I don't have no time
To listen to conflicting points of view
Oh, It's a crazy world to live alone
A ball and chain I call my home
A ba na na na na woo
People listen up don't stand to close
I've got somethin' that you all should know
Holy matrimony's not for me
I'd rather die alone in misery
Because I was always taught boy meets girl
Fall in love get married and forget the world
Nine months later sweet baby's on the way
Isn't that what they used to say?
When a girl you knew
And the bonds that we grew
Turned into a ball and chain, mmm
I step into the great unknown
A ball and chain I call my home
A-ba-na-na-na-na, woo
Crazy world to live alone
When a girl that you knew
And the bonds that we grew
Turned into a ball and chain
Oh, I step into the great unknown
On a ball and chain I call my own
Because marriage doesn't work in the world today
It's an institution that is in decay
And if I have love I wish to portray
I will surely find another way
Because I was always taught that boy meets girl
Fall in love get married and forget the world
Nine months later the sweet baby's on the way
Kiss him on the cheek and life's okay
I don't feel no pain
I don't have no time to listen to conflicting points of view
Whoa, I step into the great unknown
On a ball and chain I call my own
A-ba-na-na-na-na woo
And give it to a police man?
I wouldn't do that, mmhmm
I wouldn't do that
If I did that would you say, "Sir, come down and put the charge on me?"
I wouldn't do that, ooh
I wouldn't do that
I'm not a fool to hurt myself
But I was innocent to what they done to me
They were wrong, they were wrong
But give it to me one time (oh, give it to me, yeah)
Give it to me two times (1, 2)
Give it to me three times (1, 2, 3)
Give it to me four times (1, 2, 3, 4)
Oh, 5446, was my number, was my number now
Right now somebody else has that number
One more time. 5447 was my number, was my number now
Right now somebody else has that number
'Cause we're chillin' and we're chillin' into the club all night
We're chillin' and we're chillin' into the club all night
'Cause, hear the club, hear the beat, in the dog pound, DJ
