(Riff 1)
Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know 
I drag her around wherever I go 
This little woman drives me insane 
She's tied to my ankle with a ball and chain 

(Riff 1)
For sixteen years she's been hangin' around 
Try'n' to bury me in a hole in the ground 
Well I think it's time that I even the score 
There's only room for one in this cage of yours

(Riff 1)
Don't save me when I startin' to drown 
Don't use me when you don't want me around 
Just be my slave girl 'cause that's all I need 
So take a little step back to the stone age with me. Go!

(solo 1)

(Riff 1)
Well I hear a strange noise as I lie in my bed 
I feel a lotta water drippin' on my head 
I look around tried to see through my hair 
You left me alone, but do you think I care? 

(Riff 1)
'Cause you moved me when I was takin' my time 
You abused me when I'm outta line 
You tried to warn me of the danger sign 
So watch out! Go!

(solo 2)

(Riff 1)
Well, you got me in the bondage of another age 
You drive me to distraction in a primitive way 
I can't control my instincts when I hear her say 
"Just come around and see me if you lose your way"

(Riff 1)
So join my chain gang play along with me 
I'll be your caveman, it's basic as can be 
I'm not insane, man, I'm just outta my dream
