Trouble In The City (j J Cale) Lyrics

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
