Ball and Chain

[01:03.86] I am a working man
[01:05.66] Doing the best I can
[01:08.45] I toe the line each day
[01:12.96] To those who set the pace
[01:15.62] I'm just another face
[01:18.39] But someday soon I'll lose this
[01:22.03] Ball and chain
[01:25.65] Everyday's a life of pain
[01:31.14] Ball and chain
[01:33.88] Feel like I'm dragging round this ball and chain
[01:42.93] I'm only flesh and bone
[01:44.72] Still they want blood from stone
[01:47.44] And they cry more more more
[01:51.90] Someday they'll know my name
[01:53.78] If I can stand the strain
[01:56.57] And I won't have to haul this
[02:00.12] Ball and chain
[02:03.83] Everyday's a life of pain
[02:10.13] Ball and chain
[02:12.81] Feel like I'm dragging 'round a ball and chain
[02:21.09] Someday I'm gonna break out
[02:24.61] And I'll be free
[02:27.33] And living in paradise
[02:30.97] I won't have to crawl
[02:32.75] I'll walk with my head held high
[02:54.52] Well day after day
[02:56.32] And week after week
[02:57.28] They wear you down
[02:58.19] 'Till you're dead on your feet
[02:59.10] And what do you get?
[03:00.93] What do you got?
[03:01.86] You got nothin'
[03:04.56] So you stay where you are
[03:05.49] For security sake
[03:06.32] You got a family to feed
[03:07.28] And pennies to make
[03:09.18] It's a damn...
[03:13.36] Ball and chain
[03:16.93] Everyday's a life of pain
[03:22.43] Ball and chain
[03:26.04] Feel like I'm dragging round a ball and chain
[03:32.37] Ball and chain...
