Before Trouble

[Intro]

Be my friend before trouble

Let me stand behind you

Please be my friend, please be my friend

Please be my friend, please

Oh, be my friend, oh, until the end

Be my friend, be my friend

Be my friend, be my friend

Let me stand behind you

Please be my friend, please be my friend

Please be my friend, please

[Refrain]

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]

And they’re bringing trouble home

There on the table and in every room

Even I can see from here that it’s rough

To be dreaming like they do

Oh, oh no, oh

And I’m taking nothing off

Cause they’re all laughing at my needing

Even I can see from here that it’s rough

To be dreaming like they do

Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]

It’s cold out there, brother

Oh, brother, I feel it

My eyes are wide open

Oh, brother, I see it

It’s cold out there, brother

Oh, brother, I feel it

[Refrain]

Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]

And they’re bringing trouble home

I hear them talking, and they’re not leaving

And don’t take it out on cheaters

And people that don’t see it like you do

[Refrain]

Oh, oh no, oh

[Chorus]

It’s cold out there, brother

Oh, brother I feel it

My eyes are wide open

Oh, brother I see it

It’s cold out there, brother

Oh, brother I feel it

[Refrain]

Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Bridge]

Be my friend before trouble

Let me stand behind you

Please be my friend, please be my friend

Please be my friend, please

[Refrain]

Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]

It’s cold out there, brother

Oh, brother, I feel it

My eyes are wide open

Oh, brother, I see it

It’s cold out there, brother

Oh, brother, I feel it

[Outro]

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
