I'm singing, do-do-do
I got a ball & chain, hanging around my heart

Oh baby, you tried to hold me but you were slowly
I got a ball & chain, hanging around my heart
I'm singing, do-do-do
I got a ball & chain, hanging around my heart
And I'm singing, do-do-do, yeah
I got a heart so true, you got a heart of ice

I'm singing, do-do-do
I'm singing, do-do-do
I got a ball & chain, hanging around my heart

You were the one to blame for tearing my world apart
I'm sick of being kicked around so this is where I get out
I couldn't take your pain, you couldn't take my love
Driving me insane
I got a ball & chain, hanging around my heart
A little more love from you, it could have been paradise
I got a heart so true, you got a heart of ice

You had to tie me down inside a cage of doubt
So I'm gonna quit this game 'cause baby I've had enough
I got a ball & chain, hanging around my heart
And I'm singing, do-do-do, yeah
Oh baby
I got a ball & chain, hanging around my heart
And if it's all the same, maybe we should part
And I'm singing, do-do-do, yeah
And I'm singing, do-do-do, yeah

And if it's all the same, maybe we should part

A little more love from you, it could have been paradise
I got a ball & chain hanging around my heart
And if it's all the same, maybe we should part
