The Trouble Boys came in |
|
I guess they'd been out fighting and a'raving |
|
It wasn't long before they moved in |
|
And picked up the girls that we'd brought to |
|
It closed at ten o'clock I had to move fast |
|
To get my baby back from the Trouble Boys |
|
Twenty-five guys from the east side of the city |
|
Kings of hell-raising in the neigborhood |
|
One of them walked up and started dancing with my baby |
|
Who was crying because I didn't stop him |
|
All I could say honey was "This guy is bigger than the both of us" |
|
Trouble Boys, and the Trouble Boys all around me |
|
No one like getting sand kicked in their face |
|
But I don't know anyone who'd stand face to face with the Trouble Boys |
|
Yes the Trouble Boys |
|
I thought to myself it was time to make a move |
|
I breathed my last sigh and I started to groove with my babe |
|
Who was still dancing with the other guy |
|
By the look in her eye I was a martyr |
|
'Cause no one cuts in on the Trouble Boys |
|
Twenty-five gorillas standing all around |
|
I was shaking like a leaf on an Autumn tree |
|
The leader came up and took me by the hand |
|
He shook it like a brother |
|
He didn't crush it after all |
|
He said, "You're ok, you're the only one who's stood up to the Trouble Boy |
