Ball and Chain

Ball and Chain

Late one night by the silver moon
Johnny lost his head to the silver spoon
Ain't it a shame
No one's to bame

Johnny wrapped his life up in a ball and chain

Three years later he woke up in jail
the tracks and the lines laid his arms real well

Ain't it a shame
No one's to blame

Johnny wrapped his life up in a ball and chain
It's a living hell, where did we fail
As things start to swell, lie before the coffin and this nail

No one come to visit his deep, dark cage
Johnny's a site to see, confused with the rage
Ain't it a shame
No one's to blame

Johnny wrapped his life up in a ball and chain
Ain't it a shame
No one's to blame

Johnny wrapped his life up in a ball in a chain
