1
I lost my lucky ball & chain
2
Now she's four years gone
3
Just five feet tall and sick of me
4
And all my rattling on
5
She threw away her baby-doll
6
I held on to my pride
7
But I was young and foolish then
8
I feel old and foolish now
9
Confidentially --
10
she never called me baby-doll
11
Confidentially --
12
I never had much pride
13
But now I rock a bar stool
14
and I drink for two
15
just pondering this time bomb in my mind
16
I lost my lucky ball & chain
17
Now she's four years gone
18
Just five feet tall and sick of me
19
And all my rattling on
20
She walked away from a happy man
21
I thought I was so cool
22
I just stood there whistling
23
"There goes the bride" as she walked out the door
24
"There goes the bride" as she walked out the door
25
I could shake my tiny fist
26
and swear I wasn't wrong
27
But what's the sense in arguing
28
when you're all alone?
29
Sure as you can't steer a train
30
you can't change your fate
31
And when she told me of that day
32
I knew I'd lost my home
33
Confidentially --
34
I never told you of her charms
35
Confidentially --
36
we never had a home
37
But this railroad apartment
38
was the perfect place
39
when she'd sit and hold me in her arms
40
I lost my lucky ball & chain
41
Now she's four years gone
42
Just five feet tall and sick of me
43
And all my rattling on
44
She walked away from a happy man
45
I thought I was so cool
46
I just stood there whistling
47
"There goes the bride" as she walked out the door
48
"There goes the bride" as she walked out the door
49
"There goes the bride" as she walked out the door
