| Let me tell you all a little story
|
| 'Bout the man who lives down at the top of the stairs
|
| Well he worked all his life for his children and his wife
|
| And he opened up a little store down there
|
| One night late while h was lockin' the gate
|
| A kid came in and said
|
| «You know what I want.» |
| And he said…
|
| «I ain’t lookin' for trouble
|
| And I know what you came here to do
|
| I ain’t lookin' for trouble.»
|
| And the kid said
|
| «Trouble's come lookin' for you.»
|
| Well I swore that I would find him
|
| I said that I would track him down
|
| And in a dirty darkened alleyway I said
|
| «Today is your day whatever you do don’t turn around.»
|
| Well he looked up to me and he said that I can see
|
| That you know who I am and where I’ve been
|
| And he said…
|
| «I ain’t lookin' for trouble
|
| But I know what you came here to do
|
| I ain’t lookin' for trouble.»
|
| And I said, «Trouble's come lookin' for you.»
|
| Well I"ve spent four years of my life here
|
| In this cold gray prison cell
|
| With my cigarettes and my magazine
|
| And my life, it feels like hell
|
| I hear the footsteps in the hall |
| And I know they’re takin' me away and all
|
| And I aid, «I don’t wanna die»
|
| And I said…
|
| «I ain’t lookin' for trouble
|
| But I know what you came here to do
|
| I ain’t lookin' for trouble.»
|
| And he said, «Trouble's come lookin' for you.» |
