Lyrics:

Heard the one about your man

Lord, he's been messing 'round

He's been stepping out on the street

Lord, he's been hanging out

Ain't nobody had him yet this week but it won't take long

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

And I hope it won't mess with me



Walking downtown the other day

A man put a gun in my back

\'Give me all you've got or I'll blow you away

That's a fact, Jack\'

Woe me, misery, too much been going down

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city


Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

And I hope it won't mess with me



Catch the next train out of here

Goodbye, I'll see you, so long

Time was I could face it here

That was a long time ago

When I leave, I'll leave you very low

Next time you won't see me at all

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

Lord, lord, there's trouble in the city

And I hope it won't mess with me
