Yeah! Alright!
Sittin` down by my window,
Honey, lookin` out at the rain.
Lord, Lord, Lord, sittin` down by my window,
Baby, lookin` out at the rain.
Somethin` 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.
And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now hon`, 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 draggin` 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 wanna leave me in so much pain.
Yeah, maybe, maybe you could help me, come on, help me!
And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now hon`, tell me why,
Now tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me why, yeah.
And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, when I ask you,
When I need to know why, c`mon tell me why, hey hey hey,
Here you`ve gone today,
I wanted to love you and hold you
Till the day I die.
I said whoa, whoa, whoa!!
And I say oh, whoa, whoa, no honey
It ain`t fair, daddy it ain`t fair what you do,
I see what you`re doin` to me and you know it ain`t fair.
And I say oh, whoa whoa now baby
It ain`t fair, now, now, now, what you do
I said hon` it ain`t fair what, hon` it ain`t fair what you do.
Oh, here you gone today and all I ever wanted to do
Was to love you
Honey an` I think there can be nothing wrong with that,
Only it ain`t wrong, no, no, no, no, no.
Sittin` down by my window,
Lookin` at the rain.
Lord, Lord, Lord, sittin` down by my window,
Lookin` at the rain, see the rain.
Somethin` came along, grabbed a hold of me,
And it felt like a ball and chain.
Oh this can`t be in vain
And I`m gonna tell you one just more time, yeah, yeah!
And I say oh, whoa whoa, now baby
This can`t be, no this can`t be in vain,
And I say no no no no no no no no, whoa!
And I say whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Now now now now now now now now now no no not in vain
Hey, hope there is someone that could tell me
Hon`, tell me why,
Hon`, tell me why love is like
Just like a ball
Just like a ball
Baaaaaaalllll
Oh daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy
And a chain.
Yeah
