Both arms hanginЂ™ from the ball and chain

Both arms hanginЂ™ from the ball and chain

Tongue tied and twisted from braidinЂ™ the rope

Tongue tied and twisted from braidinЂ™ the rope

Both arms hanginЂ™ from this faded hope

Both arms hanginЂ™ from this faded hope

Both arms hanginЂ™ from this faded hope

Both arms hanginЂ™ from this faded hope

Heard it in a whisper

Heard it in a whisper

Heard it from a jailorЂ™s song

Heard it from a jailorЂ™s song

Packed it in a suitcase

Packed it in a suitcase

Lost it halfway Ђ™round the world

Lost it halfway Ђ™round the world

Out beyond harmЂ™s way you gave a lift

Out beyond harmЂ™s way you gave a lift

Past the shipyard and the empty pit

Past the shipyard and the empty pit

And you saif that my cover was already blown

And you saif that my cover was already blown

And one too many is the one IЂ™ve known

And one too many is the one IЂ™ve known

And one too many is the one IЂ™ve known

And one too many is the one IЂ™ve known

Heard it in a whisper

Heard it in a whisper

Heard it from a jailorЂ™s song

Heard it from a jailorЂ™s song

Packed it in a suitcase

Packed it in a suitcase

Lost it halfway Ђ™round the world

Lost it halfway Ђ™round the world

OhI wish you wary and I wish you wise

OhI wish you wary and I wish you wise

And then of course I wish you well

And then of course I wish you well

Rode into town on the back of surprise

Rode into town on the back of surprise

And then of course I laughed like hell

And then of course I laughed like hell

And then of course I laughed like hell

OhI wish you wary and I wish you wise

Drove into town on the back of surprise

Drove into town on the back of surprise

OhI wish you wary and I wish you wise

OhI wish you wary and I wish you wise

Then of course I wish you well

Then of course I wish you well

Rode into town on the back of surprise
