Trouble,
Everyday you're with me;
Won't you ever quit me?
Must you pick on me?
What have I done to make you taunt me?
Every day you haunt me;
Seems you always want me
To be ever blue.
Won't you give a guy like me a break?
My life seems a terrible mistake,
Is there any way I can shake you?
I hate you!
Oh, trouble,
There is no such thing
As living like a king
With a friend like you.
