[Verse 1] Tried to get a job today but When dem see the application dem say If this is really where you reside Please step outside She asked them why And they replied... [chorus] We don't want no trouble We don't want no trouble, no day Cause lady where you come from People die there everyday For our safety that's where you should stay [verse 2] She traded in her three-piece for two Everything and anything she wanted to do Went back to her side of town In bed she lay down All she could hear was... [chorus] We don't want no trouble We don't want no trouble, no day Cause lady where you come from People die there everyday For our safety that's where you should stay [bridge] It's easier to give into the pressures of life It's harder to get over when you try to do right Just stay focused and keep your goals in site [verse 3] Been through school, passed every test Graduated above the rest And yet the society still looks down They do this, why? They don't want us to try And so they'll reply... [chorus] We don't want no trouble We don't want no trouble, no day Cause lady where you come from People die there everyday For our safety that's where you should stay [repeat chorus]
