Trouble Man

I come up hard, baby, but now I'm cool
I didn't make it sugar, playin' by the rules
I come up hard, but now I'm fine
I'm checkin' trouble, sugar, movin' down the line
I come up hard, but that's OK
'Cause trouble man don't get in my way

I come up hard, baby
I've been for real
With a trouble man
I'm gonna keep movin', i'm gonna roll to town
I come up hard, baby, gettin' down
There's only three things that's for sure
Taxes, death and trouble

Well this I know, baby
This I know babe
I ain't gonna let it sweat me
You sure do think about me
Get me singin', yeah, yeah, ooo

I come up hard, I had to fight
Take care of my business with all my might
I come up hard, I had to win
Then start all over and win again
I come up hard, but that's OK
'Cause trouble man don't get in my way

I've been some places and I've seen some faces
I've got good connections, they dig my directions
What people say, that's OK, they don't bother me
I'm ready to make it, don't care 'bout the weather
Don't care 'bout no trouble, got myself together
I feel the kind of protection's all around me

I come up hard, baby
I've been for real
With the trouble man
I'm gonna keep movin', gonna go to town
I come up hard, come on, get down
There's only three things for sure
Taxes, death and trouble

This I know, baby
This I know, baby
I don't let it sweat me, no

I come up hard, but now I'm cool
I didn't make it, baby, playin' by the rules
I come up hard, but now I'm fine
I'm checkin' trouble, sure movin' down the line
I come up hard, but that's OK
'Cause trouble man don't get in my way
Don't get in my way
Movin' down the line
