My baby left me, my mule got lame,
lost all my money in a poker game.
Wind storm came one summer's day,

carried the house and lift it away.
Having so much trouble
having so much trouble.

I'm having so much trouble.
I'm gonna lose my mind.
I started selling whiskey, wine and gin,

caught me last week, last night again,
now, the sheriff comes inside,
called it my home, got shot and die.


Having so much trouble,
having so much trouble.

I'm having so much trouble
about to drive me insane.


[Solo]

Carry me to jail my pyjamas on,

I even hate that I was born.
Let me out of jail, come through town.
Couldn't find my wife, she had put me down.

Having so much trouble,
having so much trouble.
I'm having so much trouble

about to drive me insane.

I went to the races, placed my bet,

my heart looked, my horse aint in yet,
I went to the house after had blown my door,
and the landlady chained the lock on the door


Having so much trouble,
having so much trouble.

I'm having so much trouble
about to drive me insane.


I pawned my watch and I pawned my chain,
I would have pawned myself but i was ashamed.
Got me a job on the city pay

early one morning layed me off that day.
I'm having so much trouble,
I'm having so much trouble,

I'm having so much trouble,
Bought to drive me insane.
I'm having so much trouble about to drive me insane.


Trouble, trouble, trouble.
