lyrics

2) Ol’ Trouble - m.litton

Now there are men who never run from ol’ trouble
And I was one until I ran from you
And now my life becomes a mirror
Reflecting that thing I can never undo

She brought ol’ trouble, I saw ‘em comin’
That night I held her instead of you
And I know I should have refused the moment
Ah but the moments in life seem so few

Chorus: Now ol’ trouble, trouble is surrounding me
Standing every which way I turn
I’m a man who never ran from trouble, babe
Now I’ve got to say, this time I learned

And I could give you a dozen red roses
I could sing you some rhymes
But I could never stand and face you just now
Nor look you in the eye
(chorus)

And as I look on down this ol’ highway tonight
My headlights cut deep into the rain
Now I’m a man who never ran from trouble
Ah but I hung my head and ran from you in shame
