Lucky Ball And Chain Lyrics - They Might Be Giants

I lost my lucky ball and chain 

And now she's four years gone 

Just five feet tall and sick of me 

And all my rattling on 

She threw away her baby-doll 

I held on to my pride 

But I was young and foolish then 

I feel old and foolish now 

Confidentially, she never called me baby-doll 

Confidentially, I never had much pride 

But now I rock a bar stool and I drink for two 

Just pondering this time bomb in my mind 

I lost my lucky ball and chain 

And now she's four years gone 

Just five feet tall and sick of me 

And all my rattling on

She walked away from a happy man 

I thought I was so cool 

I just stood there whistling 

There goes the bride 

As she walked out the door 

There goes the bride 

As she walked out the door 

I could shake my tiny fist 

And swear I wasn't wrong 

But what's the sense in arguing 

When you're all alone? 

Sure as you can't steer a train 

You can't change your fate 

And when she told me of that day 

I knew I'd lost my home 

Photos 

Confidentially, I never told you of her charms 

Confidentially, We never had a home 

But this railroad apartment was the perfect place 

When she'd sit and hold me in her arms 

I lost my lucky ball and chain 

And now she's four years gone 

Just five feet tall and sick of me 

And all my rattling on 

She walked away from a happy man 

I thought I was so cool 

I just stood there whistling 

There goes the bride 

As she walked out the door 

There goes the bride 

As she walked out the door 

There goes the bride 

As she walked out the door
