Trouble & Pain Lyrics - This Time - Robert Cray

Road block, shutdown again 

Danger of a losin' my best friend 

You know I've got a good side, just never shows 

Waiting such a long time, goodness knows 

Chorus: 

Trouble and pain, yea 

That's all I am is 

Trouble and pain, yea, yea 

Clock stopped a week ago 

Caught me at a party with Ms. So-N-So 

We were only talkin' 

That's all that I'm sayin' 

Like a lyin' politician, there's more to that game 

(chorus) 

When I think I'm doin' right, it never seems to be enough 

Tell me my intention of you and us 

Why can't I act like someone you can trust? 

(bridge) 

Flash back three years ago 

When I said, "I promise." 

How are you suppose to know? 

Anything I did was going to make you ashamed 

Your best friend tried to tell you I was wild and unchained 

(chorus) 

That's all I am is 

Trouble and pain 

Trouble and pain 

Trouble and pain 

Trouble and pain 

Trouble and pain, yea 

That's all I have
