Trouble on My Mind

I took my toothbrush, took my pen

I’m on the road again

I’m on the highway

There’s women waiting at the end of the road

Not exactly the woman I wanted to hold

But anyway, it’s more than some folks got

Been on the road before, be on it again

That’s probably where my life’s gonna end

Least I’m livin’

When I get back I’m gonna settle down

Hmmm…that’s what I said last time ‘round

You aughta know me by now, and

Honey can’t you tell when I got trouble on my mind

Honey can’t you tell when I got trouble on my mind

In out of trouble

In out of trouble

All the time

Well now the police they tried to put me in jail

But my crazy schemes they never fail

Only my dreams do

And I’m kept busy most every night

But the big things, they never seem to turn out right

And I’m still wonderin’ why that is, and

Honey can’t you tell when I got trouble on my mind

Honey can’t you tell when I got trouble on my mind

In out of trouble

In out of trouble

All the time

Been on the road before, be on it again

That’s probably where my life’s gonna end

Least I’m livin’

When I get back I’m gonna settle down

Hmmm…that’s what I said last time around

You aughta know me by now, and

Honey can’t you tell when I got trouble on my mind

Honey can’t you tell when I got trouble on my mind

In out of trouble

In out of trouble

In out of trouble

In out of trouble

All the time                                                                                                     ©Phil Cohen
