I'm running late far where I wanted to go
Tubes are fine but the people are walking slow
I'm trying to keep things straight on down the line
Trying to keep things simple in my life
But it's a hard thing to do
When there's trouble on your mind

I bump shoulders and this guy's up in my face
You'd best keep yourself to your own personal space
You don't wanna be going and acting a fool
Just trying to keep this situation cool
But it's a hard thing to do
When there's trouble on your mind

I was thinking of you yesterday
And you're thinking that I'm a hard game to play
Oh it's difficult and oh lord I pray
You'll take this trouble from my mind

No sun, just rain in this old town
Less fun, more pain when you're not around
No job, no money's got me feeling down
Oh I've got turn this one around
But it's a hard thing to do
When there's trouble on your mind

I was thinking of you yesterday
And you're thinking that I'm a hard game to play
Oh it's difficult and oh lord I pray

You'll take this trouble from my mind

Oh from my mind
Oh oh oh
