If I had my way I would not be here
|
Not for one day, my leaving is clear
|
I've had my share of heartache and pain
|
For happiness I'm searching in vain
|
I've got to get rid of my ball and chain
|
|
For all of my life, the times they've been bad
|
And hard luck and strife, they're all I've ever had
|
|
I've had my share of heartache and pain
|
For happiness I'm searching in vain
|
I've got to get rid of my ball and chain
|
|
I've just got to be free
|
God in heaven, help me
|
|
If I had my way I would not, would not be here
|
No, not for one day, my leaving, my leaving is clear
|
|
I've had my share of heartache and pain
|
For happiness I'm searching in vain
|
I've got to get rid of my ball and chain
|
Help me!
|
I've had my share of heartache and pain
|
For happiness I'm searching in vain
|
I've got to get rid of my ball and CHAIN!
