Nobody knows the answer as far as I can see
As to why there is so much trouble here for me
But she hides in the darkest of places
And that's where I'm often seen
But why is there so much trouble here for me
'Cause there's trouble when I close my eyes
There's trouble when I go outside
There's trouble everywhere I go
It's gonna get me any day I know
It's hard bein free
So trouble trouble trouble won't you leave
And what do I tell the preacher
And what do I tell my friends
Next time that trouble takes me down again
I could run to my lovin sister
Or I could go to bed & dream
But most of the time this trouble is findin me
'Cause there's trouble when I close my eyes
There's trouble when I go outside
And there's trouble everywhere I go
It's gonna get me anyday I know
It's hard bein free
So trouble trouble trouble won't you leave
I guess that it ain't so bad
Doin things the way that I do
'Cause when the night rolls around
All that's left is me and you
And you're there every time that I need you
And you're there every time that I don't
I could ask you to politely to go
But I know you won't
'Cause there's trouble when I close my eyes
There's trouble when I go outside
And there's trouble everywhere I go
It's gonna get me anyday I know
There's trouble gonna bring me down
It's gonna put me in the underground
It's so hard bein free
So trouble trouble trouble won't you leave
So trouble trouble trouble won't you leave
