Lyrics of Ball and chain

Why do they come if they have to go
In my dream there's no tomorrow
If i had a friend i could trust he'd know
Then all his smiles i could borrow
I'd get on with my happy face
And i'd live my life in my perfect place and i'd

Break this ball and chain
I gotta get away from this house of pain
I gotta break this ball and chain
This ball and chain

Every part of me has its price
I don't hide behind a label
I'm easy to be with but who am i
A pictureless frame on a table
Waiting round for my happy face
In another time and another place when i

Break this ball and chain
I gotta get away from this house of pain yeh yeh
I gotta break this ball and chain
This ball and chain

Why do they come if they have to go
Why do they come if they have to go

So here i am with my happy face
And i'm sick and tired of this perfect place and i
I gotta. i gotta.... wah!

Break this ball and chain
I gotta get away from this house of pain yeh yeh
I gotta break this ball and chain
Gotta get away from this house of pain
I gotta break this ball and chain
This ball and chain.
