Lyrics

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
