Ball And Chain In Album Cheaper Thrills lyrics

Sittin` down by my window,
Just lookin` out at the rain, at the rain
I said I`m sittin` down by my window,
Just lookin` out at the rain.
You know somethin` came along, grabbed a hold of me,

Just lookin` out at the rain.
Somethin` came along, grabbed a hold of me,
Felt just like a ball and chain.

And I say oh, hon this can`t be
This can`t be all in vain, no, no, no.
And I say whoa, whoa, this can`t be,
Honey, it can`t be all in vain,
Hope there is someone that could tell me
