Work hard for living, wanted just to get paid

But, sure'd be stealing for a year and a day

Would like to see a little sunshine, just to guide my way

Would like to have a little peace of mind

That's why I wanna say you better look out !



Trouble you can't fool me I see you behind that tree

Look out! Trouble you can't fool me trying to get the ups on me

Trouble you can't fool me I see you behind that tree

You want to jump on me



Trouble taught me a lesson I never never will forget

Now, he took my love, she ain't paid it back yet

I had to find another just to take her place

And I sure do love her, I said we're doing ok



So look out!

Trouble you can't fool me I see you behind that tree

Look out! Trouble you can't fool me trying to get the ups on me

Trouble you can't fool me I see you behind that tree

You want to jump on me



Well, you know, everyday can't be Sunday [That's right!]

It's a funny thing, it seem just before daylight is your darkest hour

And you know one thing [what's that ?] behind every silver lining, there isn't a dark cloud

[And you just ain't got time to go 'round subtracting and adding 'cause you'll just be too late]

You know one thing ? [What's that ?]

Every time you get around a tree, you better stop and grab a brick [Why ?]

Old man trouble... laying and waiting on you



That's what I wanna say... -
