Trouble In The Streets

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I don't wanna get no trouble when I go down I wanna get in trouble on your street Got a real feeling like it's gonna be a showdown I don't wanna quit no show for free [Pre-Chorus] And everybody warned me Everybody warned me about you [Chorus] But I'm tempted by just make-believing That I can make you come around, different, and start again I like the way you got me scheming for you, dreaming of you Won't change your ways, no, can't change your ways [Verse 2] I don't wanna hurt nobody, even me But I want a little loving with some danger on the side Weight is gonna kill me, there's no better way to go Yeah, you're never gonna live if you're never gonna try [Pre-Chorus] And everybody warned me Everybody warned me about you [Chorus x2] But I'm tempted by just make-believing That I can make you come around, my friend, and start again I like the way you got me scheming for you, dreaming of you Won't change your ways, no, can't change your ways But I'm tempted by just make-believing That I can make you come around different start again I like the way you got me scheming for you, dreaming of you Won't change your ways, no, can't change your ways [Outro] When this thing is over, then it's time to say goodbye Say it's really nice to know you and to love you in my way If it was that easy for a poet and a clown We can have a conversation and believe it for the day
