| When I was leaving town you said, «Write ten songs for me»
|
| So I turned around and offered twenty if you promised to leave
|
| Leave with me, find a new home
|
| Then you turned away to where you said you belonged
|
| One year later I came back 'round to deliver
|
| Your first words to me, «Take me to bed now or lose me forever»
|
| Didn’t hesitate, didn’t blink an eye
|
| Turned and walked away, pulled down the blinds
|
| And I know you are the troublesome kind
|
| Almost as much trouble as I am
|
| You may keep me by your side
|
| But can you keep me in your heart one night
|
| It’s seems lately we’re like a two-engine automobile
|
| Both of us giving directions, but only one fits behind the wheel
|
| Curled up in bed one morning
|
| Listening to the singer’s warning
|
| «How much of your love is true?»
|
| If I were to stick around you’d have to be the devil in overalls
|
| I think I’m gonna travel on so won’t you see me to the rails
|
| I know the story well, like night and day
|
| I take you by the hand and you pull away
|
| I know you are the troublesome kind
|
| Almost as much trouble as I am
|
| You may keep me by your side
|
| But can you keep me in your heart one night?
|
| Troublesome kind |
