Trouble Man - 1995 The Master Version

I come up hard, baby, but now I'm cool
I didn't make it sugar, playin' by the rules
I come up hard, babe, but now I'm fine
I'm shakin' 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 been fo' real, baby
Gonna keep movin', gonna go to town
I come up hard, and now I'm gettin' down
There's only three things that's fo' sho'
Taxes, death and trouble

This I know, baby, this I know sugar
Yeah, ain't gon' let it sweat me baby

Got me singin', yeah, yeah, whooo
Come up hard, baby, I have to fight
To keep my dignity with all my might
I come up hard, hard, 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've seen some faces
I got good connections they dig my directions
What people say that's okay they don't bother me
I'm ready to make it, don't care 'bout the weather
Don't care 'bout no trouble, got myself together
No laughin', no cryin', my protection's all around me

I come up hard, baby
I've been for real, baby
With the Trouble Man
Movin', goin' tight
I come up hard, come on, get down
There's only three things for sure
Taxes, death and trouble

This I know, baby, baby
This I know, baby, baby
Ain't gon' let it sweat me baby

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 shakin' trouble, sure movin' down the line
