Don\\\'t give up on what you\\\'re not suppossed to be!


I tell you all my problems
And you tell me all yours
But I don’t wanna deal with your baggage no more___________________________________
You’re just a ball and chain
I keep dragging you along
All of your issues
Are not my own
You’re just a ball and chain
You won’t let go
If you’re the ball and chain
Why do I feel I’m being dragged along________
You get mad for reasons
I’ll never understand
On the roller coaster of your feelings
Let me off______________________________
You’re just a ball and chain
I keep dragging you along
All of your issues
Are not my own
You’re just a ball and chain
You won’t let go
If you’re the ball and chain
Why do I feel I’m being dragged along________
You say you don’t wanna hurt me
And I know you’d tell me lies
And you never do what I tell you to
It’s in your eyes__________________________
You’re just a ball and chain
I keep dragging you along
All of your issues
Are not my own
You’re just a ball and chain
You won’t let go
If you’re the ball and chain
Why do I feel I’m being dragged along________
You never listen to me
And you pay for it dearly
Oh the mistakes that you’ve made
But I accept you for you
And there’s nothing that you can do
To keep me away_________________________
You’re just a ball and chain
I keep dragging you along
All of your issues
Are not my own
You’re just a ball and chain
You won’t let go
If you’re the ball and chain
Why do I feel I’m being dragged along________
You’re just a ball and chain
So baby baby be gone
Baby Baby Baby
I’m gonna shake you off
But on second thought…

I wrote this song for a school project on the blues. Two of my best friends and myself sang it in front of the class. Little did one of my friends know I wrote it about him!
