I felt a little better when the sun went down
I felt a little taller when I got up off the ground
Think I hurt my back when reaching for the top
This goddamn trouble
Ain't never gonna stop
I waited all day 'till they finally called my name
Right to the front of the line
And I brought my A-game
I was eye to eye with a two-wheeled cop
This goddamn trouble
Ain't never gonna stop
Never gonna stop
You see it didn't look good for your hero at large
He was stuck in the mud, stuck in the charge
Then they sent him away up the mountain top
Never gonna stop
Pushing the envelope, pull out the rug
Pushing the button, pulling the plug
Too, too much trouble, there goes the rug
I like my trouble tight
Who's to say I'm right
Too much, goddamn trouble
All day and all night long
Who's to say I'm wrong
Too much goddamn trouble
Made my escape, it was child's play
I was back in the race, I was winning the day
Yeah, spitting gravel as I passed the cop
Goddamn trouble, just might stop
But I needed a plan and I needed it fast
I was winning the race but losing my ass
A siren blast and my heart did drop
Goddamn trouble, ain't never gonna stop
Never gonna stop
I grabbed a tape from the floor of the car
Jammed it in the dash and played Highway Star
With a foot of lead and that Chevy hop
Never gonna stop
Pushing the envelope, pull out the rug
Pushing the button, pulling the plug
Too, too much trouble, there goes the rug
I like my trouble tight
Who's to say I'm right
Too much, goddamn trouble
All day and all night long
Who's to say I'm wrong
Too much goddamn trouble
You can't give it away
Selling trouble by the light of day
And I won't give it a thought
What you've sold and what I've bought
We all went down to the river
We all went down to the race
We all went down where dead men float
Down the river and their face
We all got into some trouble
With a hair not out of place
We all went down to the lazy old river
I tell ya gone without a trace
Goddamn trouble, it ain't never gonna stop!
Pushing the envelope, pull out the rug
Pushing the button, pulling the plug
Too, too much trouble, there goes the rug
I like my trouble tight
Who's to say I'm right
Too much, goddamn trouble
All day and all night long
Who's to say I'm wrong
Too much goddamn trouble
