BALL AND CHAIN
[Intro]
[Verse]
You're just
A hard working man
From 9 to 5 you do
The best you can
[Verse]
You've got
A family to feed
And you find it so hard to
Meet their needs
[Chorus]
Whoa - life's full of pain
When you're dragging around
A ball and chain
Whoa - get rid of the strain
And break free from this
Heavy ball and chain
[Verse]
No rest
For the weary soul
Just keep on fighting
To reach your goal
[Verse]
Break out
Set yourself free
And your life will feel like
One great big party
[Chorus]
Whoa - life's full of pain
When you're dragging around
A ball and chain
Whoa - get rid of the strain
And break free from this
Heavy ball and chain
[Bridge]
You're dreaming of a brighter day
Where there is no strain
But still standing at a crossway
With that ball and chain
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
Rise above the doubts and fears
Chase away the night
Through the laughter and the tears
Find your guiding light
[Chorus]
Whoa - life's full of pain
When you're dragging around
A ball and chain
Whoa - get rid of the strain
And break free from this
Heavy ball and chain
[Chorus]
Whoa - life's full of pain
When you're dragging around
A ball and chain
Whoa - get rid of the strain
And break free from this
Heavy ball and chain
Ball and chain
Ball and chain
[Outro]
