When trouble starts : it stops at my front door
I've had more trouble : than ever in my life before

I wonder why : troubles keeps on worrying me
I'd just soon have my body : baby buried in the sea

I had trouble this morning : mailman didn't leave no mail
I can't see my baby : she's all locked up in jail

When trouble starts : it lasted so long
Look like everything happened : and everything goes wrong

Tell me baby : what trouble have done to me
Come and got my regular : then took my used to be
