Willie Mae "Big Mama" Thornton (December 11, 1926 -- July 25, 1984) was an American rhythm and blues singer and songwriter. She was the first to record Leiber and Stoller's "Hound Dog" in 1952, which became her biggest hit. It spent seven weeks at number one on the Billboard R&B charts in 1953 and sold almost two million copies. However, her success was overshadowed three years later, when Elvis Presley recorded his more popular rendition of "Hound Dog". Similarly, Thornton's "Ball 'n' Chain", had a bigger impact when performed and recorded by Janis Joplin in the late 1960s.

Say oh, oh, oh, oh,
honey this can't be
no, no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no yeah.
whoa, whoa, whoa
honey, this can't be just because i want to want you
does this mean i have to hide to cry, cry all the time ?
i just wanted to love you, darling,
every day, oh, whoa, till the, to the very end, to the end of time,

seems like anything, it could be the telephone company man,
it could be the man i love, i always got something else going, you know what i mean ?
over on the other side, say, not quite got it right this very minute.
i'm so sorry babe, i said i'm so very sorry babe,
but i never did promise you nothing, right ? i see what you mean.
come on, man, now come on, that ain't the name of it,
and that ain't the end of it, you know what i mean.
sometimes, it feels just about breaking things, you know what i mean.
just like, just like a grave, just like a grave to call
just like a cry to call.
honey i never understood and i said please

i want you to help me, fill it up baby,
i want you to help me, i said allow me to hear
please, please, please, please, please, please, please,
honey make me understand why love just feels so heavy on me, darling,
feels so bad on my back, babe,
feels just like a ball,
feels like a ball, ball, oh daddy feels like a ball,
and a chain.
you are great!
Keep jamming
