5446 that’s my number/ball and chain

 

Do you believe I would take such a thing with me
and give it to a police man?
I wouldn't do that, no
I wouldn't do that
And if I did that would you say, 'Sir,
come down and put the charge on me'?
I wouldn't do that
No I wouldn't do that
I'm not a fool to hurt myself
But I was innocent to what they’ve done to me
They were wrong
They were wrong
Give it to me one time
Give it to me two time
Give it to me three time
Give it to me four time
Oh 5446 what's my number what's my number now
Right now somebody else has that number
One more time 5447 what's my number what's my number now
Right now somebody else has that number
some jealous punk
snuck up around the back
tried to take her lovin' over me
Oh lord I got into a fist fight and wound up in jail all night
Give it to me one time
Give it to me two time
Give it to me three time
Give it to me four time
People listen up don’t stand to near

I’ve got something that you all should hear

All lies, all the lies they’ve told to me

Form a little part of history

Cuz I was always taught that boy meets girl

Fall in love get married and forget the world

Nine months later the sweet baby’s on the way

Kiss ‘m on the cheeck and life’s ok

I don’t feel no pain, I don’t have no time

To listen to conflicting points of view

It’s a crazy world to live alone

A ball and chain I call my own

People listen up don’t stand to close

I’ve got something that you all should know

Holy matrimony’s not for me

Rather die lone in misery

Cuz I was always taught that boy meets girl

Fall in love get married and forget the world

Nine months later the sweet baby’s on the way

Isn’t that what they used to say

When a girl you knew

And the bond that we grew

Turn into a ball and chain

I step into the great unkown

On a ball and chain I call my own

Crazy world to live alone…

When a girl you knew

And the bond that we grew

Turn into a ball and chain

I step into the great unkown

On a ball and chain I call my own

Cuz marriage doesn’t work in the world today

It’s an institution that is in decay

And if I have love I wish to portray

I will surely find another way

Cuz I was always taught that boy meets girl

Fall in love get married and forget the world

Nine months later the sweet baby’s on the way

Kiss ‘m on the cheek and life’s ok

I don’t feel no pain, I don’t have no time

To listen to conflicting points of view

I step into the great unknown

On a ball and chain I call my own
