Trouble In the City

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 "Give me all you've got or I'll blow you away That's a fact, Jack" Woe me, misery Too much been going down 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 Catch the next train out of here Goodbye, I'll see you, so long Time was I could face it here That was a long time ago I'll leave you very low Next time you won't see me at all 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
