mike ness - ball and chain lyrics
well it’s been ten years and a thousand tears
and look at the mes i’m in-
a broken nose and a broken heart,
an empty bottle of gin
well i sit and i pray
in my broken down chevrolet-
while i’m singin’ to myself
there’s got to be another way
[chorus:]
take away, take away
take away this ball and chain
i’m lonely and i’m tired
and i can’t take any more pain
take away, take away
never to return again
take away, take away
take away this ball and chain
well i’ve searched and i’ve searched
to find the perfect life-
a brand new car and a brand new suit
i even got me a little wife-
but wherever i have gone
i was sure to find myself there-
you can run all your life
but not go anywhere
[chorus]
well i’ll p-ss the bar on the way
to my dingy hotel room-
i spent all my money
been drinkin’ since half past noon-
i’ll wake there in the mornin’
or maybe in the county jail-
times are hard getting harder
i’m born to lose and destined to fail-
[chorus]
