City lights and cigarettes Chasing goals that don't exists The life you think you hold You know it holds you Whiskey and a poison word They go down deeper than they should And I've been taking your hits like a soldier Oh like I told ya
Don't mean to start no trouble Don't mean to start no trouble Don't mean to start no trouble, dear
You're haunting love like your cocaine Rush the high that numbs the pain Your comfort comes so cheap, it leaves you lonesome And ain't it just the same you see You want me more the more I leave I've been taking your hits like I told ya Like a soldier
Don't mean to start no trouble Don't mean to start no trouble Don't mean to start no trouble, dear
Don't mean to start no trouble Don't mean to start no trouble Don't mean to start no trouble, dear
And now the shadows stalking me Whispering all that we could be But I won't let you go until it's over Like I told ya
Don't mean to start no trouble Don't mean to start no trouble Don't mean to start no trouble, dear
Don't mean to start no trouble Don't mean to start no trouble Don't mean to start no trouble, dear
