Chain Gang: Shackled To My Heart

I'm on this Chain Gang, you see
'cause you're shackled to my heart

You're the ball on my chain;
I love you, tho' you drive me insane

You make me twigs and berries blossom;
You know just how to properly prepare
me meat and two veg

and it's sure temptin'when I'm with you
just to be livin' on the edge

Our love is a Garden
and you are the Rose

I picked you, you see
'cause you're scent attracted my nose
and watching you blush curled my toes
Sounds cliche', but that's how the story goes

My love is deep ; see how it shows?
and how deep is my love? Nobody knows.
