Trouble and me we're old buddies you see I've stuck by him and he's a stickin' by me
Well goodbye honey be thankful you're free
And that you're not stuck with ol' trouble and me

Trouble and me we keep a bummin' around I'm picking 'em up and laying 'em down
Well officer we're only passing through town
Looking for somethin' that we'd never found
Trouble and me...
[ guitar - steel ]
Well once I thought that trouble had found someone else
I came close to findin' a place for myself
About that time he came back with a frown
And trouble and me had to find a new town
Trouble and me...
