Ball and chain

Did you say it was black tie?
I lost a button, but it fits just fine
Remind me: What time?
Do you kids still high five?

Cool dad is fun, cool dad's your favorite guy
Watch me on the floor

Ball and chain, what would I be?
Without this weight that's pulling me
Down and out and back again
Don't ask me
Don't ask me

So I'm giving you these keys
Ten minutes more no matter what I say
Then the Irish goodbye
And the seat's up too far

Back roads, I'm spinning with the starry skies
Pour me out at home

Ball and chain, what would I be?
Without this weight that's pulling me
Down and out and back again
Don't ask me
Don't ask me

I'm a little bit surprised
I sleep for 50 years and you're still here
Taking up my side

And the sun moves so fast
Too fast to see, too bright to look too long
I open up my eyes

Ball and chain, what would I be?
Without this weight that's pulling me
Down and out and back again
Don't ask me
Don't ask me
Don't ask me
