Goddamn Trouble

I felt a little better when the sun went down

I felt a little taller when I got up off the ground

Think I hurt my back when reaching for the top

The goddamn trouble

Ain't never gonna stop

I waited all day 'till they finally called my name

Right to the front of the line, and I brought my A-game

I was eye to eye with a two-wheeled cop

This goddamn trouble

Ain't never gonna stop, never gonna stop.

You see it didn't look good for your hero at large

He was stuck in the mud, stuck in the charge

Then they sent him away up the mountain top

Never gonna stop

Pushing the envelope, pull out the plug

Pushing the button, pulling the plug

Too, too much trouble, there goes the rug

I like my trouble tight, who's the say I'm right

Too much, goddamn trouble

All day and all night long, who's to say I'm wrong

Too much, goddamn trouble

Made my escape it was child's play

I was back in the race, I was winning the day

Yeah spitting gravel as I passed the cop

Goddamn trouble, just might stop

But I needed a plan and I needed it fast

I was winning the race but losing my ass

A siren blast and my heart did drop

Goddamn trouble, ain't never gonna stop

Never gonna stop

I grabbed a tape from the floor of the car

Jammed it in the dash and played Highway Star

With a foot of lead and that Chevy hop

Never gonna stop

You can't give it away, selling trouble by the light of day

And I won't give it a thought, what you've sold and what I've bought

We all went down to the river, we all went down to the race

We all went down where dead men float, down the river and their face

We all got into some trouble, with a hair not out of place

We all went down to the lazy old river, I tell ya gone without a trace

Goddamn trouble, it ain't never gonna stop!
