| | Ball And Chain Lyrics Artist(Band):Social Distortion
And look at the mess I'm in- A broken nose and a broken heart, An empty bottle of gin Well I sit and I pray In my broken down Chevrolet- While I'm singin' to myself There's got to be another way chorus: Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain I'm lonely and I'm tired And I can't take any more pain Take away, take away Never to return again Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain Well I've searched and I've searched To find the perfect life- A brand new car and a brand new suit I even got me a little wife- But wherever I have gone I was sure to find myself there- You can run all your life But not go anywhere chorus: Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain I'm sick and I'm tired And I can't take any more pain Take away, take away Never to return again Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain Well I'll pass the bar on the way To my dingy hotel room- I spent all my money Been drinkin' since a half past noon- I'll wake there in the mornin' Or maybe in the county jail- Times are hard getting harder I'm born to lose and destined to fail- chorus: Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain I'm lonely and I'm tired And I can't take any more pain Take away, take away Never to return again Take away, take away Take away this ball and chain If you find some error in Ball And Chain Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?

I think anyone with a fucking brain can figure out what he's trying to say, without you showing your intellectual supremacy and showing how fucking smart you are. Pfeh. Worm. Anyway. This song's timeless--I've heard it all over the place in my years, and it always seems to ring true with at the very least one person. For me, it rang true for years. Except, my ball and chain wasn't booze, drugs, or a woman. For me, it was my past. Some things we can't come to terms with, until we close our eyes, stop thinking, and charge right into 'em. One of Social D's best songs, and easily one of the greatest songs I've had the fortune to hear in my life. (Rock on, Mike Ness.) Great Song! | Reviewer: Vic | 3/31/09 This song is awesome. It really captures the sadness and loneliness and hopelessness and despair. I feel exactly as the song describes right this moment and it was great to hear it put into words and song. Been Done Before! | Reviewer: Diane | 1/27/09 Don't like the song, and the title is misleading, to say the least. You assume the "Ball & Chain" is a women, an old lady-it's NOT. It's the empty gin bottle he's got there! LOL No, seriously, the booze addiction is Social Distortation's 'ball and chain'.
