Janis Joplin - Ball And Chain letra de canción

Sittin' down by my window, honey, lookin' out at the rain
Sittin' down by my window, baby, lookin' out at the rain
Somethin' came along, grabbed a hold of me
And it felt just like a ball and chain

And I say, oh, why, why, now hon', tell me why,
why does every single little tiny thing I hold on go wrong?
And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now babe, tell me why,
why does everything, everything?

Hey, hear you gone today, I wanted to love you
Honey, I just wanted to hold you, I said, for so long
Love's got a hold on me, baby, feels like a ball and chain
Now love's just draggin' me down, baby, feels like a ball and chain

I hope there's someone out there who could tell me
Why the man I love wanna leave me in so much pain?
And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, now hon', tell me why,
now tell-me tell-me tell-me tell-me, tell-me tell-me why, yeah

And I say, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, when I ask you,
When I need to know why, c'mon tell me why, hey hey hey,
Hear you've gone today, I wanted to love you
And hold you till the day I die

And I say oh, whoa, whoa, no honey
it ain't fair, daddy it ain't fair what you do,
I see what you're doin' to me and you know it ain't fair
And I say oh, whoa whoa now baby

it ain't fair, now, now, now, what you do
I said hon' it ain't fair what,hon' it ain't fair what you do
Oh, hear you gone today and all I ever wanted to do
Was to love you

Sittin' down by my window, lookin' at the rain
Sittin' down by my window, lookin' at the rain, see the rain
Somethin' came along, grabbed a hold of me
And it felt like a ball and chain

And I say oh, whoa whoa, now baby
this can't be, no this can't be in vain,
and I say no no no no no no no no, whoa!
And I say whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
now now now now now now now now now no no not in vain

Hey, hope there is someone that could tell me
hon', tell me why,
hon', tell me why love is like
just like a ball and chain?
