I had a lot of friends, now I wonder where they've gone
I can't believe that my Lord's forsaken me
One day my trouble's gonna have trouble with me
Down by the river, we watched the waters rise
We spent our whole lives fighting back
the tide
Daddy raised a fist and shouted angrily
One day my trouble's gonna have trouble with me
Chop the wood and carry your love
Have a drink and your head explodes
I ain't givin' up
I ain't givin' up
I ain't givin' up the guts
I don't mind workin', but I sure do mind dyin'
The boss says he won't kill me, but it sure feels like he's tryin'
Everything I have belongs to the company
One day my trouble's gonna have trouble with me
Chop the wood and carry your love
Have another drink till your head explodes
I ain't givin' up the guts
I ain't givin' up the guts
Married the one I loved and we raised a family
Seen a lot of hard times, but I still try to believe
Daddy raised a fist and shouted angrily


Daddy's wish will someday come to be One day my trouble's gonna have trouble with me
One day my trouble's gonna have trouble with me
One day my trouble's gonna have trouble with me
Okay
