Verse 1
I lost my lucky ball & chain
And now she's four years gone
Just five feet tall and sick of me
And all my rattling on
She threw away her baby-doll
I held on to my pride
But I was young and foolish then
I feel old and foolish now
Chorus
Confidentially, she never called me baby-doll
Confidentially, I never had much pride
But now I rock a bar stool and I drink for two
D C D N.C.
Just pondering this time bomb in my mind
Verse 2
I lost my lucky ball & chain
And now she's four years gone
Just five feet tall and sick of me
And all my rattling on
She walked away from a happy man
I thought I was so cool
I just stood there whistling
"There goes the bride" as she walked out the door
There goes the bride as she walked out the door
Bridge
(Noise)
Verse 3
I could shake my tiny fist
And swear I wasn't wrong
But what's the sense in arguing
When you're all alone?
Sure as you can't steer a train
You can't change your fate
And when she told me off that day
I knew I'd lost my home
Chorus
Confidentially, I never told you of her charms
Confidentially, we never had a home
But this railroad apartment was the perfect place
D C D N.C.
When she'd sit and hold me in her arms
Verse 4
I lost my lucky ball & chain
And now she's four years gone
Just five feet tall and sick of me
And all my rattling on
She walked away from a happy man
I thought I was so cool
I just stood there whistling
"There goes the bride" as she walked out the door
There goes the bride as she walked out the door
There goes the bride as she walked out the door
