Sitting down by my window Looking at the rain Send a bomb in my world of night air All around I felt it All I could see was the rain Something grabbed a hold of me honey Felt to me, honey like a ball and chain You know what I mean
Say whoah...honey, this can't be Just because I got to want your love, please...leave me be Whoah...honey, this can't be Just because I got to need ya daddy Please don't ya let me down now
Honey, I wanted to love ya
Whoah...honey, just can't be I wonder if someone...if they could tell me Tell me why Just because I got to want your love Honey, just because I got to need, need, need your love I say, I don't understand Honey, when I wanna try and say hi Try, try, try, try, try, try, try... Honey, when everybody in the world wants the same damn thing When everybody in the world, who needs the same lone thing When I wanna work for your love daddy When I wanna try for you love daddy I don't understand, how come, your gone, man
I don't understand why half the world is still crying, man When the other half the world is still crying too, man I mean, if you gotta care for one day, man Say, maybe, you wanna care for 365 days, right? You ain't got it for 365 days, man You got it for one day, man Well, I'll tell you that one day, man, better be your life, man Because you know, you can say Oh Man, you can cry about the other 364 But your gonna lose that one day, man And that's all you got You gotta call that love, man. That's what it is. If you got it today, you don't wear it tomorrow Cause you don't need it As a matter of fact, as we discovered on the train, tomorrow never happens. It's all the same fucking day, man. So you gotta, when you wanna hold somebody You gotta hold em like it's the last minute of your life You gotta hold.........................
Holy...Cause some day some weight gonna come on your shoulders babe Ball and Chain.
