Lyrics

Trouble Maker

[Intro]

Woy, Lord have mercy

Lord, Lord have mercy

[Verse 1]

You trouble maker (Trouble maker make you galang so)

You trouble maker (Trouble maker make you galang so)

You're makin' trouble

[Chorus]

You're playing with my heart

You're playing with my heart

[Verse 2]

You trouble maker (Trouble maker make you galang so)

I wanna bet ya (Trouble maker make you galang so)

That if I let ya

[Chorus]

You'd really break my heart, you'd really break my heart

But it's only a fool gonna live with a broken heart

[Verse 3]

You trouble maker (Trouble maker make you galang so)

You can do better (Trouble maker make you galang so)

You trouble maker (Trouble maker make you galang so)

[Chorus]

You're playing with my heart

You're playing from the start

[Verse 4]

You write a letter

You write a letter

To my baby mother

[Chorus]

You told her how we start

You told her how we start

[Verse 5]

I must forget you

You trouble maker (Trouble maker make you galang so)

I must forget you (Trouble maker make you galang so)

[Chorus]

That's where the trouble start

That's where the trouble start

But soon one day you're gonna break your heart

But soon one day you're gonna break your heart

[Bridge]

Woy, Lord have mercy

Lord, Lord have mercy

[Verse 6]

You trouble maker (Trouble maker make you galang so)

You trouble maker (Trouble maker make you galang so)

You're makin' trouble

[Chorus]

You're playing with my heart

You're playing with my heart

[Verse 7]

I wanna bet ya

That if I let ya

[Chorus]

You'd really break my heart, you'd really break my heart

But it's only a fool wants to live with a broken heart

It's only a fool want to live with a broken heart

[Bridge]

Woy, Lord have mercy

Lord, Lord have mercy

[Verse 8]

You trouble maker (Trouble maker make you galang so)

You can do better (Trouble maker make you galang so)

You write a letter

To my baby mother

[Chorus]

You told her how we start

You told her how we start

[Verse 9]

I must forget ya

You trouble maker (Trouble maker make you galang so)

I must forget ya (Trouble maker make you galang so)

[Chorus]

That's where the trouble start

That's where the trouble start

It's only a fool wants to live with a broken heart

Yes, it's only a fool wants to live with a broken heart

[Outro]

Woy, Lord have mercy

Lord, Lord have mercy
