Trouble Man(Live At The London Palladium/1976)

I come up hard baby, but now I'm cool

I didn't make it sugar, playin' by the rules

I come up hard baby, but now I'm fine

I'm checkin trouble sugar, movin' down the line

I come up hard but that's okay

'Cause trouble man, don't get in my way

I come up hard, baby

I've been for real, baby, gonna keep movin', gonna go to town

I come up hard I come up gettin' down

There's only three things that's for sure

Taxes, death and trouble

This I know baby, this I know sugar

Girl Ain't gon let it sweat me babe

Got me singin', yeah, yeah, ooh

Come up hard, baby, I had to fight

Took care my business with all my might

I come up hard, come up hard, I had to win

Then start all over and win again

I come up hard but that's okay

'Cause trouble man don't get in my way, hey, hey

I know some places and I seen some faces

I got my connections, they take my directions

What people say, that's okay, they don't bother me, no

I'm ready to make it, don't care 'bout the weather

Don't care 'bout no trouble, got myself together

Laughin', no cryin', my protection's all around me

I come up hard, baby, I've been for real, baby

With the trouble mind, movin', goin' tight

I come up hard, come on, get down

There's only three things for sure

Taxes, death and trouble, oh

This I know, baby, this I've known, baby

Hey now, let it sweat, baby, ooh

All right, baby, ooh

I've come up hard, but now I'm cool

I didn't make it, baby, playin' by the rules

I've come up hard, baby, but now I'm fine

I'm checkin' trouble, sugar, hey, movin' down the line, oh
