The trouble boys came in |
|
I guessed they'd been out fightin' and ravin' |
|
It wasn't long before they moved in and picked up |
|
The girls we brought to the dance at the night spot |
|
It closed at ten so I had to move fast |
|
To get my baby back from the trouble boys |
|
Twenty five guys from the east side of the city |
|
Kings of hell raising in the neighborhood |
|
Well, one of them walked up and started dancin' with my girl |
|
Who was cryin' 'cause I didn't stop him |
|
All I could say to my baby was |
|
"Honey, this man is bigger than the both of us" |
|
He's a trouble boy and there's trouble boys all around me |
|
No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face |
|
I don't know anyone who'll stand face to face |
|
With the trouble boys, yeah, the trouble boys |
|
Well, I thought to myself it's time to make my move |
|
I breathed my last sigh and I started to groove with my baby |
|
Who was still dancin' with the other guy |
|
By the look in her eye I was a martyr |
|
She knew I was dead |
|
'Cause no one cuts in on the trouble boy |
|
Yeah, the trouble boys and the trouble boys all around me |
|
No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face |
|
I don't know anyone who'll stand face to face |
|
With the trouble boys, yeah, the trouble boys |
|
Twenty five gorillas all around me |
|
I was shakin' like a leaf on a autumn tree |
|
The leader came up and he grabbed my hand |
|
And he shook it like a brother, didn't crush it after all |
|
He said, "Good shot buddy, you're the only guy |
|
Who's stood up to a trouble boy" |
|
Yeah, the trouble boy and the trouble boys all around me |
|
No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face |
|
I don't know anyone who'll stand face to face |
|
With the trouble boys, yeah, the trouble boys |
|
No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face |
|
But I know someone who can stand face to face |
|
With the trouble boys, yeah, the trouble boys |
|
No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face |
|
But I know somebody who can stand face to face |
|
With the trouble boys, yeah, the trouble boys |
|
No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face |
|
But I know somebody |
