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
