Текст песни: Ball and Chain + перевод

I am a working man

Doing the best I can

I toe the line each day

To those who set the pace

I’m just another face

But someday soon I’ll lose this

Ball and chain

Everyday’s a life of pain

Ball and chain

Feel like I’m dragging round this ball and chain

I’m only flesh and bone

Still they want blood from stone

And they cry more more more

Someday they’ll know my name

If I can stand the strain

And I won’t have to haul this

Ball and chain

Everyday’s a life of pain

Ball and chain

Feel like I’m dragging 'round a ball and chain

Someday I’m gonna break out

And I’ll be free

And living in paradise

I won’t have to crawl

I’ll walk with my head held high

Well day after day

And week after week

They wear you down

'Till you’re dead on your feet

And what do you get?

What do you got?

You got nothin'

So you stay where you are

For security sake

You got a family to feed

And pennies to make

It’s a damn…

Ball and chain

Everyday’s a life of pain

Ball and chain

Feel like I’m dragging round a ball and chain

Ball and chain…
