If I Had My Way I Would Not Be Here

Not For One Day, My Leaving Is Clear

I've Had My Share of Heartache and Pain

For Happiness I'm Searching in Vain

I've Got to Get Rid of My Ball and Chain

For All of My Life, the Times They've Been Bad

And Hard Luck and Strife, They're All I've Ever Had

I've Had My Share of Heartache and Pain

For Happiness I'm Searching in Vain

I've Got to Get Rid of My Ball and Chain

I've Just Got to Be Free

God in Heaven, Help Me

If I Had My Way I Would Not, Would Not Be Here

No, Not For One Day, My Leaving, My Leaving Is Clear

I've Had My Share of Heartache and Pain

For Happiness I'm Searching in Vain

I've Got to Get Rid of My Ball and Chain

Help Me!

I've Had My Share of Heartache and Pain

For Happiness I'm Searching in Vain

I've Got to Get Rid of My Ball and Chain!
