Lyrics Tower of Power

Tower of Power

Ball And Chain

He's got his

playboy decal

On his

Corvette windshield

He's obsessed with sex

Impressed by the rich

He's been

gainfully employed for years

Atlantic-Richfield

Writes his check

Pats him on the back

And he's

Bound just to drag that ball and chain

Bound just to drag that ball and chain

His mama don't cut this boy no slack

It's drivin' him insane

I guess he's bound and determined

to drag that ball and chain

He's got his

Plastic money

steno honey

Lives out his dreams

on upward mobility

He said he was

lonely once

He said he was

lonely twice

You'd think that he'd

look around

check it out

what a way to live a life

And he's

Bound just to drag that ball and chain

Bound just to drag that ball and chain

His mama don't cut this boy no slack

It's drivin' him insane

to drag that ball and chain

Get back boy

This cat's

Bound just to drag..............................

cross the flo'

Slap hime some mo'

Cat said

ooom-a-little baby

ooom-a-little baby

Draggin' that ball and chain, yeah

ooom-a-little baby

Draggin' that ball and chain, yeah.......
