Sittin` down by my window, Honey, lookin` out at the rain. Oh, Lord, Lord, sittin` down by my window, Baby, lookin` out at the rain. Somethin` came along, grabbed a hold of me, honey, And it felt just like a ball and chain. Honey, that`s exactly what it felt like, Honey, just dragging me down. And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now hon`, tell me why, Why does every single little tiny thing I hold on to go wrong ? Yeah it goes wrong, yeah. And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now babe, tell me why, Does every thing, every thing. Hey, here you gone today, I wanted to love you, I just wanted to hold you, I said, for so long, Yeah! Alright! Hey! Love`s got a hold on me, baby, Feels like a ball and chain. Now, love`s just draggin` me down, baby, Feels like a ball and chain. I hope there`s someone out there who could tell me Why the man I love wanna leave me in so much pain. Yeah, maybe, maybe you could help me, come on, help me! And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now hon`, tell me why, Now tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me why, yeah. And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, when I ask you, When I need to know why, c`mon tell me why, hey hey hey, Here you`ve gone today, I wanted to love you and hold you Till the day I die. I said whoa, whoa, whoa!! And I say oh, whoa, whoa, no honey It ain`t fair, daddy it ain`t fair what you do, I see what you`re doin` to me and you know it ain`t fair. And I say oh, whoa whoa now baby It ain`t fair, now, now, now, what you do I said hon` it ain`t fair what, hon` it ain`t fair what you do. Oh, here you gone today and all I ever wanted to do Was to love you Honey you can still hear me rock and roll the best, Only it ain`t roll, no, no, no, no, no. Sittin` down by my window, Lookin` out at the rain. Lord, Lord, Lord, sittin` down by my window, Lookin` out at the rain, see the rain. Somethin` came along, grabbed a hold of me, And it felt like a ball and chain. Oh this can`t be in vain And I`m gonna tell you one more time, yeah, yeah! And I say oh, whoa whoa, now baby This can`t be, no this can`t be in vain, And I say no no no no no no no no, whoa, And I say whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Now now now now now now now now now no no not in vain Hey, hope there is someone that could tell me Hon`, tell me why love is like Just like a ball Just like a ball Baaaaaaalllll Oh daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy And a chain.
