I just wanna be your ball and chain

Wrapped around your finger

Locked up, tie me down

Follow you forever

Never let you get away

Holding on like a ball and chain

(Boy, be my ball and chain

Yo it's gotta be right)



I never wanted to stay

In one place too long

On no, not me, I didn't want to be

A victim of that fatal touch

When you want someone too much - but

You, you'll be the end of me

And I don't want to run anymore



(( chorus ))

I just wanna be your ball and chain

Wrapped around your finger

Locked up, tie me down

Follow you forever

Never let you get away

Holding on like a ball and chain



I tried my best to avoid

Making promises

Oh no, not me, I didn't wanna

Be a prisoner of that tender trap

When there's no turning back - but

You, you got me on my knees

And I won't be afraid anymore



(( chorus ))



(( rap ))

Uh, what...

I know it's been some time

Confine - to be alone

But now I know I've found the one

It's gotta be this love jones

You know that I get open when you rub on my back

The goosebumps and the chills must be proof of that

'Cause I'm feelin'

When you dealin'

All the knowledge you've got

About makin' it good

When you're touchin' my spots

I got - lots of luvin' when we bubblin' right

I look forward to the time when the day turns night

Yo I say meet at the crib at a quarter to nine

And at that time what do I find?

(And I won't be afraid anymore)

The sight of you be wantin' me

Just hauntin' my fight

Boy, be my ball and chain

Yo it's gotta be right



I can't believe I'm holding on...
