[Intro]
I got a suitcase, I take it everywhere I go
I got a suitcase baby, I take it everywhere I go
It's just a big old bag of trouble, trouble all I know

[Verse 1]
I met a girl, fell in love
And our love was true
I met a girl, fell in love
Whoa, our love was true

[Verse 2]
Well and I found out, Lord she had a big old suitcase too
So we put our bags together, made a home for two (It's cool, yeah)
People we put our bags together, you know made a home for two
Then along came the children, gave 'em all a little suitcase too

[Verse 3]
Well the house got too small, the bags got too big
We was holdin' on to everything, whatever said or did
When I complained about the salt, in her black eyed peas
Then she put her hand on her hip and she told me to leave
And take my suitcase, get on out that door
You gonna hear from lawyer, I can't take it no more

[Verse 4]
I had to get down on my knees, beg her to let me stay
I had to get down on my knees and beg her to let me stay
I said baby we got a whole lot of baggage
Let's call somebody and have 'em haul it away
[Outro]
I got a suitcase, I take it everywhere I go
People I got a suitcase, I take it everywhere I go (Yeah, I'm tired)
It's a big old bag of trouble, I don't need no more
