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, Felt just like a ball and chain. And I say, oh, oh, oh, hon', Why does every thing go wrong ? It all goes wrong. And I say, oh, now tell me why, Does every thing go wrong, all wrong. Say, here you gone today, an' I wanted to love you For so long. Love's got a hold on me, baby, Feels just like a ball and chain, hmm hmm hmm. Oh, love's got a hold on me, baby, Feels just like a ball and chain. And I don't know why the man I'm lovin' Wanna leave me in so much pain. And I say, oh oh oh, hon', tell me why, Tell me why, tell me why, oh tell me why, why, why. And I say, oh, honey why, why, oh why, tell me why. I thought our love would last Honey, gonna last, last Till the day I die. And I say oh, whoa, whoa, hon' It ain't fair, it ain't fair what you can do, What you can do, Lord. And I say oh whoa, Lord, it ain't fair, it ain't fair what you can do, Lord, you can do. Oh suddenly you broke my heart Oh when I was givin' my love to you. Sittin' down by my window, Just lookin' out at the rain. I said I'm sittin' down by my window, 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 Hon', tell me why love is like A ball and chain.
