Ball of Twine Lyrics


She's kinda wind up, you know
Like a ball of twine
Sometimes she don't know
Even where she goin'
But you let me tell it
I'd be knowin', you know
Lady, where you go?
You know she's all wind up
Oh man, just like a ball of twine
Yeah, you know she's all wind up
Oh man, just like a ball of twine
You know she'll stay twisted
'Cause she's got ramblin' on her mind
Yeah, I wished I could do somethin'
Oh yeah, to change that woman's mind
Yeah, I wished I could do somethin'
Oh Lord, to change that woman's mind
You know I hate to see her twisted

Wind up like a ball of twine
Tell you sometimes she thinks she goin' crazy
Then again she believe she's losin' her mind
Sometime she thinks she goin' crazy
Sometimes she believe she losin' her mind
She's here for a state twisted and
Bound like a ball of twine
It don't make no difference, baby
If you is twisted all the time
It don't make no difference
Woman, if you is twisted all the time
You know, you just rush to get ready
And get travellin' off your mind

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Sam Hopkins was born on March 15, 1912 in Centerville, Texas. In 1920, at the age of eight, Hopkins met and played with the legendary Blind Lemon Jefferson, even becoming Jefferson's guide for a short time. Hopkins' cousin, the great bluesman, Texas Alexander, was another influence. Their musical partnership was broken up by Hopkins' time in Houston's County Prison Farm during the 1930s. When Hopkins made his way to Houston's Third Ward in 1946 he was introduced to Lola Anne Cullum, a talent scout who had pieced together deals with companies such as Aladdin Records out of Los Angeles.
