Trouble he will find you no matter where you go o oh 
No matter if you're fast no matter if you're slow o oh 
The eye of the storm or the cry in the mourn o oh 
You're fine for a while but you start to lose control 
He's there in the dark 
He's there in my heart 
He waits in the wings 
He's gotta play a part 
Trouble is a friend 
Yeah trouble is a friend of mine 
Trouble is a friend but trouble is a foe o oh 
And no matter what I feed him he always seems to grow o oh 
He sees what I see and he knows what I know o oh 
So don't forget as you ease on down the road 
He's there in the dark 
He's there in my heart 
He waits in the wings 
He's gotta play a part 
Trouble is a friend 
Yeah trouble is a friend of mine 
So don't be alarmed if he takes you by the arm 
I won't let him win but I'm a sucker for his charm 
Trouble is a friend yeah 
Trouble is a friend of mine ohoh 
How I hate the way he makes me feel 
And how I try to make him leave 
I try oh oh I try 
But he's there in the dark 
He's there in my heart 
He waits in the wings 
He's gotta play a part 
Trouble is a friend 
Yeah trouble is a friend of mine 
So don't be alarmed 
If he takes you by the arm 
I won't let him win 
But I'm a sucker for his charm 
Trouble is a friend 
Yeah trouble is a friend of mine
