Green-eyed lady passions lady  
dressed in love she lives for life to be  
Green-eyed lady feels like I never see  
Setting sun and lonely lovers free

Gagged, ball and chained, feel just the same  
Heads on the wall, maybe you’re just playing games  
Set me free  
Mauled by a hound, hangin’ around  
Is this for real, I don’t know when I’ll be found  
Set me free

Lord, Lord, Lord, sittin’ down by my window,  
Baby, lookin’ out at the rain.  
Somethin’ came along, grabbed a hold of me,  
And it felt just like a ball and chain.

Someday love will find you  
Break those chains that bind you  
One night will remind you  
How we touched  
And went our separate ways

And if, you don’t love me now  
You will never love me again  
I can still hear you saying  
You would never break the chain (Never break the chain)

When the gun smoke settles we’ll sing a victory tune  
We’ll all meet back at the local saloon  
We’ll raise up our glasses against evil forces  
Singing whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
