rate me

(F. Knight/A. Varnell)

(C) - (F) - (G)

(C) Trouble you can't fool me (F) I see you behind that tree

(C) Trouble you can't fool me (G) trying to get the ups on me

(C) Trouble you can't fool me (F) I see you behind that tree

(C) You want to (F) jump (G) on (C) me

Work hard for living, wanted just to get paid

But, sure'd be stealing for a year and a day

Would like to see a little sunshine, just to guide my way

Would like to have a little peace of mind

That's why I wanna say you better look out !

Trouble you can't fool me I see you behind that tree

Look out! Trouble you can't fool me trying to get the ups on me

Trouble you can't fool me I see you behind that tree

You want to jump on me

Trouble taught me a lesson I never never will forget

Now, he took my love, she ain't paid it back yet

I had to find another just to take her place

And I sure do love her, I said we're doing ok

So look out!

Trouble you can't fool me I see you behind that tree

Look out! Trouble you can't fool me trying to get the ups on me

Trouble you can't fool me I see you behind that tree

You want to jump on me

Well, you know, everyday can't be Sunday [That's right!]

It's a funny thing, it seem just before daylight is your darkest hour

And you know one thing [what's that ?] behind every silver lining, there isn't a dark cloud

[And you just ain't got time to go 'round subtracting and adding 'cause you'll just be too late]

You know one thing ? [What's that ?]

Every time you get around a tree, you better stop and grab a brick [Why ?]

Old man trouble... laying and waiting on you

That's what I wanna say...

Trouble you can't fool me I see you behind that tree

Look out! Trouble you can't fool me trying to get the ups on me

Trouble you can't fool me I see you behind that tree

You want to jump on me

Trouble took my money, Cadillac's gone

Best suit of clothes, all raised up in the closet, oh Lord

But I'm so glad

Trouble don't last ...always

You can't fool me
