Ball and Chain (1969 version) versuri

Versuri Big Mama Thornton – Ball and Chain (1969 version) lyrics

Sitting by my window
And I was looking out at the rain
Sitting by my window, baby
And I was sitting down, looking out at the rain
You know something struck me
Clamped on to me just like a, just like a ball and chain

I said oh, oh baby
Why you wanna do all them mean things to me?
I said oh, oh baby, why do you wanna
Why you wanna do all them mean things to me?
Because you know I love you
And I’m so sick and tired, so sick and tired of being in misery
Hey hey, ball and chain

I know you’re gonna miss me, baby
Oh yes, you’re going to miss all those sweet things
Oh yes, I know you’re gonna miss me, baby
Oh I know you’re going to miss all those sweet things
And then you’ll find that your whole life will be like mine
Oh Lord, wrapped up like a ball and chain

I said oh, oh baby
Why you wanna do all them mean things to me?
I said oh, oh baby
Why you wanna do all them mean things to me?
I know my love for you will last forever
It’s gonna last, I said it’s gonna last
Oh good God Almighty, for eternity
Oh yeah, ball and chain
