Van Morrison - Ball & Chain lyrics

[Van Morrison - Ball & Chain lyrics]

I've been on this roller coaster
Just too many times
And always it seems like the blind
Keep on leading the blind
Tried to get them on the phone
Tried to find my way back home
Tried and failed and tried and failed again

But baby
I don't want you 'cause you look so good
I don't want you 'cause I know I should
I don't want you to come in from the rain

I want you to be my ball and chain
I want you to be my ball and chain

Ah, just lately I've been roaming
From town to town
I've been setting 'em up, setting 'em up
And I've been knocking 'em down
I was born to live, it seems


A fugitive dream
Make things always better than they seem
And I stop and start and stop and
Start and stop and start again

Baby, I don't want you for your money
I don't want you 'cause I love you, honey
I don't want you to ease this memory pain

No, I want you to be my ball and chain
Yes, I want you to be my
Be my ball and chain

When I see you in the garden once again
Baby, you'll be standing in the summer rain
Laugh and cry and say what it's all about
You can even jump and shout
And you'll smile and say how are you again

I don't want you 'cause I'm so blue
I don't want you 'cause you know what to do
I don't want you 'cause all
My love seems in vain

I want you to be my ball and chain
I want you to be my ball and chain
I want you to be my ball and chain
I want you to be my ball and chain

Oh, be my ball and chain
(I want you to be my ball and chain)
Be my ball and chain be my ball and chain
(I want you to be my ball and chain)
Oh, be my ball and chain
I want you, ball and chain, ball
And chain, ball and chain, ball and chain
(I want you to be my ball and chain)
Ball and chain, ball and
Chain, ball and chain, ball and chain
Ball and chain, ball and chain
Be my ball and chain
(I want you to be my ball and chain)
Ball and chain, ball and chain
Be my ball and chain
(I want you to be my ball and chain)
