Ball And Chain by Janis Joplin


S-sitting down by my window

Oh looking at the rain.

S-sitting down by my window now now

All around i felt it

All i could see was the rain.

Something grabbed a hold of me honey

Felt to me honey like lord a ball and chain.

Yeah! hey! you know what i mean

But it's way too heavy for you

You can't hold it tomorrow.

 

Say whoa whoa honey it can't be

Just because i got to want your love

Please please please please whoa please please.

Whoa honey it can't be

Just because i got to need you daddy.

Please don't you let me down no please lord!

Here you gone today but i wanted to love you

I wanted to hold you yeah till the day i die

Till the day till the day

Yeah! hey! hey! all right!

Say whoa whoa honey this can't be

Not anything i ever wanted from you daddy

Tell me now now now now oh tell me now yeah.

I say whoa whoa honey this can't be

No no no no no no no ... yeah yeah hey!

And i want someone that 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 said i don't understand honey but i wanna chance to try

Try try try try try try try

Honey when everybody in the world wants the same damn thing

When everybody in the world will need the same lonely thing

When i wanna work for your love daddy.

When i wanna try for your love daddy.

 

i don't understand how come you're gone man. i don't understand why half the world is still crying man when the other half of the world is still crying too man i can't get it together. i mean if you got a cat for one day man -- i mean if you say say if you want a cat for 365 days right -- you ain't got him for 365 days you got him for one day man. well i 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 man but you're gonna lose that one day man and that's all you've got. you gotta call that love man. that's what it is man. if you got it today you don't want it tomorrow man 'cause you don't need it 'cause as a matter of fact as we discovered in the train tomorrow never happens man. it's all the same fucking day man.

 

So you gotta when you wanna hold a sigh

You gotta hold him like it's the last minute in your life baby.

You gotta hold whoa whoa hold him

'cause someday some weight's gonna come on your shoulders babe

It's gonna feel too heavy it's gonna weigh on you

It's gonna feel just like a ball ball ball oh daddy

And a chain.
