Ball And Chain In Album Monterey International Pop Festiv lyrics

We got one more song, uh, it`s called Love Is Like a Ball and Chain

Sittin` down by my window,
Just lookin` on at the rain.
Mm, sittin` down by my window,
Just lookin` on at the rain.
Somethin` came along, honey, grabbed a hold of me,
An` it felt like a ball and chain.
Yeah! Alright!

And I said, oh, whoa, whoa, hon, tell me why,
Why does every thing go, go wrong ?
I said hon it all go wrong, I wanna know! I wanna know!
And I said, oh, whoa, whoa, honey, tell me why,
Why does every thing go wrong ?
I said babe it all go wrong, yeah.

Babe, I want to love you for so long.
Yeah! Alright!

Love got a hold on me, baby,
And it feels like a ball and chain.
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, love got a hold on me, baby,
Feels like a ball and chain.
Honey, I don`t know why the man I`m lovin`

Till the day I die.
