Overkill – Goddamn Trouble lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

Let's go!

[Short Instrumental Break]

Felt a little better when the sun went down
Felt a little taller when I got up off the ground
Think I hurt my back when reaching for the top
Goddamn trouble ain't never gonna stop
I waited all day 'til they finally called my name
Right to the front of the line and I brought my A-game
I was eye to eye with a two-wheeled cop
Goddamn trouble, never gonna stop

Never gonna stop
Ain't never gonna stop
Never gonna stop

See, it didn't look good for your hero at large
He was stuck in the mud, he was stuck in the charge
They sent him away up the mountain top
Never, never, never, never, never gonna stop!

Pushing the envelope, pull out the rug
Pushing the button, pulling the plug
Too, too much trouble, there goes the rug

I like my trouble tight - who's to say I'm right?
Too much goddamn trouble
All day and all night long - who's to say I'm wrong?
Too much goddamn trouble... hey!

[Short Instrumental Break]

Made my escape, it was child's play
I was back in the race, I was winning the day
Yeah, spittin' gravel as I passed the cop
Goddamn trouble, just might stop
But I needed a plan and I needed it fast
I was winnin' the race, but losin' my ass
A siren blast and my heart did drop
Goddamn trouble, never gonna stop

Never gonna stop
Ain't never gonna stop
Never gonna stop

I grabbed a tape from the floor of the car
Jammed it in the dash, it played "Highway Star"
With a foot of lead and that Chevy hop
Never, never, never, never, never gonna stop!

Pushing the envelope, pull out the rug
Pushing the button, pulling the plug
Too, too much trouble, there goes the rug

I like my trouble tight - who's to say I'm right?
Too much goddamn trouble
All day and all night long - who's to say I'm wrong?
Too much goddamn trouble... hey!

[Short Instrumental Break]

You can't give it away
Darkness by the light of day
I won't give it a thought
What you've sold and what I've bought

[Instrumental Break]

That's right!

[Short Instrumental Break]

We all went down to the river, we all down to the race
We all went down where dead men float, down the river on their face
We all got into some trouble, with a hair not out of place
We all went down to the lazy old river - I tell you, gone without a trace

Goddamn trouble, it ain't never gonna stop
Goddamn trouble, it ain't never gonna stop
Goddamn trouble, it ain't never gonna stop

Goddamn trouble, it ain't never gonna stop
Goddamn trouble, it ain't never gonna stop
Goddamn trouble, it ain't never gonna stop

Pushing the envelope, pull out the rug
Pushing the button, pulling the plug
Too, too much trouble, there goes the rug

I like my trouble tight - who's to say I'm right?
Too much goddamn trouble
All day and all night long - who's to say I'm wrong?
Too much goddamn trouble!
