Ball and Chain Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Did you say it was black tie?
I lost a button, but it fits just fine
Remind me what time
Do you kids still high five?
Cool Dad is fun, Cool Dad's your favorite guy!
Watch me on the floor
[Chorus 1]
Ball and Chain, what would I be
Without this weight that's pullin' me?
Down and out and back again
Don't ask me
Don't ask me
[Verse 2]
So I'm givin' you these keys
Ten minutes more, no matter what I say
Then the Irish goodbye
The seat's up too far
Back roads I'm spinning with the starry sky
Pour me out at home
[Chorus 2]
Ball and Chain, what would I be
Without this weight that's pullin' me?
Down and out and back again
Don't ask me
Don't ask me
[Verse 3]
I'm a little bit surprised
I sleep for 50 years, and you're still here
Takin' up my side
And the sun moves so fast
Too fast to see, too bright to look too long
I open up my eyes
[Chorus 3]
Ball and Chain, what would I be
Without this weight that's pullin' me?
Down and out and back again
Don't ask me
Don't ask me
I lost a button, but it fits just fine
Remind me what time
Cool Dad is fun, Cool Dad's your favorite guy!
Watch me on the floor
Without this weight that's pullin' me?
Down and out and back again
Don't ask me
Ten minutes more, no matter what I say
Then the Irish goodbye
Back roads I'm spinning with the starry sky
Pour me out at home
Without this weight that's pullin' me?
Down and out and back again
Don't ask me
I sleep for 50 years, and you're still here
Takin' up my side
Too fast to see, too bright to look too long
I open up my eyes
Without this weight that's pullin' me?
Down and out and back again
Don't ask me
