| Sneakin' thru the front door
|
| Sits down next to me
|
| She ordered up a double
|
| A Tanqueray martini
|
| She slammed it back in one shot
|
| Said martinis make her sneeze
|
| She slid up nice 'n cozy
|
| And she whispered, «Daddy, please»
|
| Now that I got a wife and family
|
| They gonna wonder where I been (yeah, where you been)
|
| With a cocktail and a short skirt
|
| Here comes trouble again (c'mon)
|
| Dice game in the backroom
|
| Rent check in my hand (Aham)
|
| Looking for a seven
|
| The dice got better plans
|
| I like to play the ponies
|
| I’m at the track all week (Yeah)
|
| It’s hard to handicap 'em
|
| When you’re on a losing streak
|
| Now, friends, my wife told me Friday
|
| She’d like to see my gamblin' end (Oh, mercy)
|
| Getting' hard to be a good man
|
| Here comes trouble again (Always trouble again)
|
| Oh, here comes trouble again (Yeah)
|
| Oh, just like he was my friend
|
| Here comes trouble again (Trouble again)
|
| (Trouble again)
|
| The government called me Monday
|
| Said something about some scratch
|
| I tried to call them Tuesday
|
| I said, «I ain’t got the cash»
|
| They called the house on Wednesday, right?
|
| Said, «If I don’t have it soon» (Oh yeah…)
|
| «They're gonna make a reservation»
|
| «For a six-by-eight foot room»
|
| Now ladies and gentlemen, I got a wife and family (Look out)
|
| Please don’t take me to the pen (Don't take me!)
|
| Pullin' 2 to 5 in Clinton
|
| Here comes trouble again (Here comes, here comes, here comes)
|
| Oh, here comes trouble again
|
| Oo oh, smiling like he was my friend
|
| Here comes trouble again |
