Lyrics
Do you believe I would take such a thing with me
And give it to a police man?
I wouldn't do that, mhmm
I wouldn't do that
And if I did that would you say, "Sir"
And come down and put the charge on me?
I wouldn't do that, oh
I wouldn't do that
I'm not a fool to hurt myself
But I was innocent to what they done to me
They were wrong, they were wrong
But give it to me one time (oh give it to me, yeah)
Two times
Give it to me three times
Give it to me four times
Oh, 54, 46, was my number
Was my number now
Right now, somebody else has that number
One more time
54, 47, was my number
Was my number now
Right now, somebody else has that number
Oh
Say boom, say, one go with him up, yes
Say boom, say, want keep him, keep him on his back, say
Say boom, say, me want to take off her dress, huh
Say boom, say, I've kissed and caressed
'Cause we're jillin' and we're chillin' into the club all night
We're jillin' and we're chillin' into the club all night, buds
Hear the dogs, hear the beat, in the dog pound
DJ, "Lord have his grilled cheese"
Some jealous punk
Snuck up around my back
Tried to take the lovin' over me
Lord I got into a fist fight
And wound up in jail all night
Give it to me one time
Give it to me two times
Give it to me three time
Give it to me four time
People listen up
Don't stand too near
I've got something that you all should hear
All lies
All the lies they told to me
Form a little part of history
I was always taught that boy meets girl
Fall in love, get married and forget the world
Nine months later, sweet baby's on the way
Kiss 'em on the cheek and life's okay
I don't feel no pain
I don't have no time
To listen to conflicting points of view, oh
It's a crazy world to live alone
A ball and chain I call my own
A-ba-na-na-na-na
Woo
People listen up
Don't stand too close
I've got something that you all should know
Holy matrimony is not for me
I'd rather die alone in misery
Because I was always taught that boy meets girl
Fall in love. get married and forget the world
Nine months later, sweet baby's on the way
Isn't that what they used to say?
With a girl that you knew
And the bonds that we grew
Turned into a ball and chain, mhmm
I step into the great unknown
On a ball and chain I call my own
A-ba-na-na-na-na
Woo
Crazy world to live alone
With a girl that you knew
And the bonds that we grew
Turned into a ball and chain, oh
I step into the great unknown
On a ball and chain I call my own, huh, huh
Because marriage doesn't work in the world today
It's an institution that is in decay
And if I have love I wish to portray
I will surely find another way
Because I was always taught that boy meets girl
Fall in love, get married and forget the world
Nine months later the sweet baby's on the way
Kiss 'em on the cheek and life's okay
I don't feel no pain
I don't have no time
To listen to conflicting points of view, whoa
I step into the great unknown
On a ball and chain I call my own
A-ba-na-na-na-na
Woo
