Lou Rawls
World Of Trouble
I'M IN A WORLD OF TROUBLE
DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO

SUPPOSED TO BE ONE WOMAN'S MAN

BUT I AM IN LOVE WITH TWO

ONE IS MY TREASURE

ONE IS MY TREAT

BOTH SUCH A PLEASURE

'CAUSE THEY'RE BOTH SO SWEET

I CAN'T PUT EITHER OF THEM DOWN

THAT'S WHY I'M SLIPPIN' 'ROUND

LIVIN' DOUBLE IN A WORLD OF TROUBLE

YES, IT'S A WORLD OF TROUBLE

I AIN'T HAPPY NOW

'CAUSE I GOT ONE MORE WOMAN
THAN THE LEGAL LAWS ALLOW

JUDGES WOULD JAIL ME

PREACHERS WOULD SHOUT

BAD TALK WOULD NAIL ME

IF THE TRUTH GOT OUT

POLITE SOCIETY WOULD FROWN

CLAIM I'M JUST A CLOWN

LIVIN' DOUBLE IN A WORLD OF TROUBLE

I DO NOT DARE REVEAL

THE NEED I DEEPLY FEEL

TO MY PROPER FRIENDS IT WOULD SCARE 'EM

THEY WOULD CHALK IT UP TO GREED

BUT WHAT I DEEPLY NEED
IS A NEW KIND OF TWO WOMAN HAREM

I'VE GOT A WORLD OF TROUBLE

A WOMAN AND A WIFE

THE KIND OF SITUATION

THAT CAN COST SOMEBODY'S LIFE

OH, BUT I'M GONNA BEAR IT

'LONG AS I CAN

NO, I DON'T WANT TO SHARE IT

WITH NO OTHER MAN

ALL OF MY FUTURE'S IN A FOG

I'M JUST A DIRTY DOG

LIVIN' DOUBLE IN A WORLD OF TROUBLE
