Ball and Chain
For The Rights of All Man
Words and Music by Duncan Faure ©1996
Some days you know better than other days I'm just finding out
You're telling me all these things that I can do without
You talk to me, talk right through me
Sometimes I got nowhere to run
I told you which way to go, seems I'm not the only one
But I know which way's the door
And I keep coming back for more
And I should know by now, she's a ball and chain
Yes she's a ball and chain
You're talking all day, maybe I don't hear you
Try me on the telephone
Heard you shouting out loud just for a change
Only love can, only love can
Keep me tied to a ball and chain
What is happening here, when I find myself doing it again
But I know which ways the door,
And I keep coming back for more
And I know by now, she's a ball and chain
Yes I know, I'll be alone again with you tonight
When love is older, it can get colder
You get to finding out
What love is really all to do about
There's a heartache that can last
If you hold on to the past, I should know by now
She's a ball and chain, yes she's a ball and chain
She'll drive a man insane, yes she's a ball and chain
She's a ball and chain
Ball and chain, she'll drive a man insane
