Sittin' down by my window, oh
Honey, lookin' at the rain
Sittin' down by my window
All around I felt it
All I could see was rain
Something grabbed a hold of it, honey
Felt to me, honey, like a ball & chain
Hey, you know what I mean?
When it's way too heavy for you
You can't hold it no more!
Say, oh whoa, whoa, honey!
This can't be
Just because I got to want your love, please, baby, please!
Whoa, yeah, please!
Whoa, honey, this can't be
Just because I got to need you, daddy!
Please don't you let me down now!
Please!
Here you gone today, but I wanted to love you
I wanted to hold you, yeah, til the day I die, yes I did!
Yes I did, yeah! Hey! Alright!
Say whoa, honey, this can't be!
Not anything I ever wanted from that I tell you now, now, now
Oh, whoa
Oh say whoa, whoa, honey
This can't be, no no no no no no no no!
I never wanted someone to tell me, tell me why
Just because I got to want your love
Honey just because I got to need, need, need your love
I said, I don't understand, honey when I wanna try to say Hi
Try! Try! Try! Try, try, try, try!
Honey when everybody in the world wants the same damn thing
When everyone in the world needs the same one thing
When I wanna work for your love, daddy
When I wanna try for your love, daddy
I don't understand how come you're gone, man?
I don't understand why half the world is still cryin'!
When the other half of the world is still cryin', too, man
I can't get it together.
I mean, if you got a cat for one day, man, I mean, say maybe you want a cat for 365 days, right? You ain't got it for 365 days. You got it for one day, man. Well, I'll tell you, that one day, man, better be your life. Because you know, you can say "aw man," you can cry about the other 364, man, but you're gonna lose that one day, man, and that's all you got. You gotta call that love, man. That's what it is, man! If you've got a today, you don't wear it tomorrow, man! Cuz you don't need it! Cuz as a matter of fact, as we discovered on the train, tomorrow never happens, man! It's all the same fucking day, man...
So you gotta, when you wanna hold so high
You gotta hold him like it's the last minute of your life
Hold him!
Cuz someday some weight's gonna come on your shoulders, babe
It's gonna feel too heavy
It's gonna weigh on ya
It's gonna feel just like a ball, ball, ball, ooh daddy, & chain
