Well the sound of your voice on the telephone
Make me feel distressed
Make me all alone
Why do I feel so incomplete?
When you're not here I'm just obsolete
My bed is burnin' all through the night
You're the only one that can make me feel right
Try to lay down my sleepin' head
But I'm tossin' and turnin' around instead
I love you like a ball and chain
(Make it alright now.)
Love you like a ball and chain
(Feels too good.)
I'm a fool I know but I'm stuck on you
I'm a fool I know and it's makin' me blue
There's a river of blood
There's a river of tears
I've been wasting all these years
Chorus repeats
Make me feel distressed
Make me all alone
Why do I feel so incomplete?
When you're not here I'm just obsolete
My bed is burnin' all through the night
You're the only one that can make me feel right
Try to lay down my sleepin' head
But I'm tossin' and turnin' around instead
I love you like a ball and chain
(Make it alright now.)
Love you like a ball and chain
(Feels too good.)
I'm a fool I know but I'm stuck on you
I'm a fool I know and it's makin' me blue
There's a river of blood
There's a river of tears
I've been wasting all these years
