THE TROUBLE WITH ME IS TROUBLE
(Ernest Tubb)

Ernest Tubb - 1947


The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
The kind that keeps hanging around
It always comes on the double
And trouble will soon get you down

Everything I ever plan always turned out wrong
If good luck ever came my way it was on a day when I was gone
The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
And trouble will soon get you down

Instrumentals

The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
It’s followed me all my life
My dreams all fade just like bubbles
I’ve never known nothing but strife

I was stranded on an isle ten thousand miles from home
A rescue ship would pass and think I wanted to be there alone
The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
And trouble will soon get you down

Instrumentals

The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
Because fate has been so mean to me
It always comes on the double
From trouble I’ll never be free

If it was raining dollar bills and people were in line
Although I was out there first I bet I wouldn’t get a dime
The Trouble With Me Is Trouble
And trouble will soon get you down
