I remember the phone every evening ringing till it fell off the wall
|
Seemd like every single guy in town was looking for a buddy to call
|
It was a honky tonk convention sprucing up to get on down
|
I thought we had same intention but that ain't what I found
|
Cause weekend after weekend day after day
|
My friends call me up and say I'm losing my mind just wasting my life away
|
But let me tell you something I ain't goin' insane
|
No I'm just havin' a ball swinging on my baby's chain
|
I'm just havin' a ball swinging on my baby's chain
|
|
I remember that crowded bar room we saw she was headin' our way
|
Just a lady in a room full of roosters crowing out their line of the day
|
She didn't hear a word they were saying she just walked right into my life
|
She took me by the hand like she had it all planned and we danced on into the night
|
Oh weekend after weekend day after day
|
Always together two of a kind just dancing life's heartches away
|
While my friends are growing old and lazy you know I ain't feeling no pain
|
Cause I'm just havin' a ball swinging on my baby's chain
|
I'm just havin' a ball swinging on my baby's chain
|
[ guitar ]
|
Come on love's for those who make it I'm saying don't sit around and complain
|
Cause I'm still havin' a ball swinging on my baby's chain
|
Yeah I'm just havin' a ball swinging on my baby's chain
|
