For the good Times

Trouble Man (Tony Joe White - Waylon Jennings)

Waylon Jennings

(1937-2002)

I was so ugly the doctor slapped my momma when I was born
Then he took out his pocket knife and cut off my horns
He said lady if you ain't already picked out a name
Go ahead on and call him trouble man.

He's gonna be wild
I'm giving you warning
He's gotta have room
Keep an eye on him.

The Highwaymen Live 1990, Waylon Jennings TROUBLE MAN

I grew up with long and lean and hungry looks
I learned you can't go nowhere when you go by the book
People all around me earthbound I learned how to fly
Upside downside outside sailing on by.

Out of my reach
Out of my hands
Out of control
Trouble man, yeah.

I've been so far in all directions as you can get
I ain't never had enough of anything yet
I had women that tore me apart without any reason
I say baby I don't get mad I just get even.

I don't explain if
You don't understand
I'm my own man
Trouble man, trouble man...
