Lyrics

That’s the Trouble

Every night, to take a walk on high to see

The shadows of the moonlight, when this guy

Began to follow me, and now you see

(That's the trouble)

Then he took my hand, to my surprise

He stared so seriously, in my eyes and said

"Why, I'd like for you to come on home with me"

(That's the trouble)

Every man I see (That's the trouble)

Taking every little thing so heavily

That's the trouble if you wanna let you be

That's the trouble if you really wanna be free

When I did not realize, he was the

Serious type of guy, when I read his letter

Which said, "I love you. Will you marry me?"

(That's the trouble)

Every man I see (That's the trouble)

Taking every little thing so heavily

That's the trouble if you wanna let you be

That's the trouble if you really wanna be free

(Try to be)

(That's the trouble)

Every man I see (That's the trouble)

Taking every little thing so heavily

That's the trouble if you wanna let you be

That's the trouble if you really wanna be free

(Try to be)

(That's the trouble)

(That's the trouble)
