Heard the one about your woman

Lord, she's been messing 'round

She's been stepping out on the street

Lord, she's been hanging out

Ain't nobody had her this week but it won't take long

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

And I hope it won't mess with me

Walking downtown the other day

A man put a gun in my back
