Janis Jolplin Ball and chain Lyrics

S-sitting down by my window,
Oh, looking at the rain.
S-sitting down by my window now now,
All around I felt it,
All I could see was the rain.

Something grabbed a hold of me, honey,
Felt to me honey like, Lord, a ball and chain.
Yeah! Hey! You know what I mean,
But it´s way too heavy for you,
You can´t hold it tomorrow.

Say, whoa, whoa, honey, it can´t be
Just because I got to want your love
Please please please please, whoa please, please.
Whoa, honey it can´t be Whoa,
Just because I got to need you daddy.

Please don´t you let me down, no, please, Lord!
Here you gone today, but I wanted to love you,
I wanted to hold you, yeah, till the day I die,
Till the day, till the day,
Yeah! Hey! Hey! All right!

Say, whoa, whoa, honey this can´t be
Not anything I ever wanted from you daddy
Tell me now, now, now, now, oh, tell me now, yeah.
I say, whoa, whoa, honey this can´t be
No, no, no, no, no, no, no ... yeah yeah, hey!

And I want someone that could 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, but I wanna chance to try

Try, try, try, try try try try
Honey when everybody in the world wants the same d___ thing
When everybody in the world will need the same lonely 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 crying, man,
When the other half of the world
Is still crying too, man,
I can´t get it together.
I mean, if you got a cat for one day, man
I mean, if you, say,say,
If you want a cat for 365 days, right
You ain´t got him for 365 days, you got him for one day, man.
Well I tell you that one day, man, better be your life, man.
Because, you know, you can say, oh man,
You can cry about the other 364, man,
But you´re gonna lose that one day, man,
And that´s all you´ve got.
You gotta call that love, man. That´s what it is, man.
If you got it today you don´t want it tomorrow, man,
Cause you don´t need it, ´cause as a matter of fact,
As we discovered in the train, tomorrow never happens, man.
It´s all the same f___ing day, man.

So you gotta, when you wanna hold a sigh,
You gotta hold him
Like it´s the last minute in your life, baby.
You gotta hold, whoa, whoa, hold him
Cause someday some weight´s
Gonna come on your shoulders, babe,
It´s gonna feel too heavy, it´s gonna weigh on you,
It´s gonna feel just like a ball, ball, ball, oh daddy,
And a chain.
