Blackjack Crossing – Don't Borrow Trouble lyrics
When I was just a boy my father told me
This world don’t owe you a thing
So if you’ve got a chance to make it
You better keep on reaching for that ring
Cuz everywhere you go they’ll try to stop you
Yeah, they’ll try to keep you on the ground
But every time you get knocked down, you gotta get back up
Cuz there ain’t no life in living lying down
And don’t borrow trouble from tomorrow
Today’s got worries all you need
It don’t really matter where they came from
And you sure don’t want to know what they mean
Then one day I’m flipping through the Bible
The only book they’d let us read
That you never get more than you can handle
And you always get everything you need
Chorus
Someday my boy will follow my footsteps
He’s already got them blues
And I won’t be there to see it
So I hope these are some words he can use
So don’t borrow trouble from tomorrow
Today’s got worries all you need
It don’t really matter where they came from
And you sure don’t want to know what they mean
Cuz they don’t mean a goddamn thing
This world don’t owe you a thing
So if you’ve got a chance to make it
You better keep on reaching for that ring
Cuz everywhere you go they’ll try to stop you
Yeah, they’ll try to keep you on the ground
But every time you get knocked down, you gotta get back up
Cuz there ain’t no life in living lying down
And don’t borrow trouble from tomorrow
Today’s got worries all you need
It don’t really matter where they came from
And you sure don’t want to know what they mean
Then one day I’m flipping through the Bible
The only book they’d let us read
That you never get more than you can handle
And you always get everything you need
Chorus
Someday my boy will follow my footsteps
He’s already got them blues
And I won’t be there to see it
So I hope these are some words he can use
So don’t borrow trouble from tomorrow
Today’s got worries all you need
It don’t really matter where they came from
And you sure don’t want to know what they mean
Cuz they don’t mean a goddamn thing
