Ball And Chain Lyrics - Singles - Never The Bride

Why do they come if they have to go 

In my dream there's no tomorrow 

If I had a friend I could trust he'd know 

Then all his smiles I could borrow 

I'd get on with my happy face 

And I'd live my life in my perfect place and I'd 

Break this ball and chain 

I gotta get away from this house of pain 

I gotta break this ball and chain 

This ball and chain 

Every part of me has its price 

I don't hide behind a label 

I'm easy to be with but who am I 

A pictureless frame on a table 

Waiting round for my happy face 

In another time and another place when I 

Break this ball and chain 

I gotta get away from this house of pain yeh yeh 

I gotta break this ball and chain 

This ball and chain 

Why do they come if they have to go 

Why do they come if they have to go 

So here I am with my happy face 

And I'm sick and tired of this perfect place and I 

I gotta. I gotta.... Wah! 

Break this ball and chain 

I gotta get away from this house of pain yeh yeh 

I gotta break this ball and chain 

Gotta get away from this house of pain 

I gotta break this ball and chain 

This ball and chain.
