Ball And Chain (1991)
Back when we made our plans to tie the knot
My friends they all laughed at me a lot
They slapped my back and told me how they thought I was insane
They said, "Son you're too young to wear that ball and chain"

But love don't feel like a ball and chain to me
When I'm close to you me heart feels wild and free
If you are my jailer darling through away the key
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me
Love don't feel like a ball and chain
Don't feel like a ball and chain
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me

Well I still see my single friends from time to time
And they ask me how it feels to walk the line
Well I tell them it feels better then I ever dreamed it would
And I would not trade places with them even if I could

No love don't feel like a ball and chain to me
When I'm close to you me heart feels wild and free
If you are my jailer darling through away the key
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me

Well if it is a crime for a man to love his wife
Then throw that old book at me give me ninety-nine to life
And I'll spend every minute, every hour, every day
Holding you close I don't want to get away

Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me
When I'm close to you me heart feels wild and free
If you are my jailer darling through away the key
Love don't feel like a ball and chain to me
Love don't feel like a ball and chain
Love don't feel like a ball and chain
Love don't feel like a ball and chain
Love don't feel like a ball and chain
