Trouble Trouble Trouble - Hank Snow/D.R

Well I married a gal from ole Alabam'

And I figured they'd feed me on chicken and ham

But to my surprise I got fooled

And they put me to plow with an ole blind mule

Cleanin' new ground choppin briars

And sleepin' by myself

I's invited out to supper the other night

And some of the boys they started a fight

They called the police you can plainly see

They all got away but poor ole me

I went to town with the Sheriff

He introduced me to the judge

And I stayed thirty days with

The jailor actin' a big shot nice man

Now me and my wife's a goin' down the street

When my ole used to be I chanced to meet

She gave me the wink and my wife looked back

And boy you ought to seen me ball the jack

I run red lights turned corners

And got caught just my luck

I was down in the barnyard the other night

It was awful dark and I had no light

I scrambled around and got hold of a goose

And the folks all thought I should turn him loose

I jumped rose bushes dodged bullets

And fell in the creek

I was down in the barnyard on my knees

And I thought I heard a chicken sneeze

It was just an ole rooster sayin' his prayers

And givin' out a hymn to the hens upstairs

Such preachin' the hens were all singin' too

Rooster's prayin' takin' up a collection

And payin' off in eggs

That ole trouble sure follows me
