Trials & Tribulations

(album: Gentleman's Blues - 1998)

When your only girl betrayed you, boy
What did you do with your wisdom
Well you loved that girl again, loved that girl again
Now who you got to blame for your trials and tribulations

What did you do when you found the man
The one who stole your good girl
Well you cut him up and down, heard you cut him all around
Now who you got to blame for your trials and tribulations

Well I tried to tell you
But you run and hide
Down by the riverbed
Stay drunk all night
It weren't no lady
With scorpion
Well, you're just another rabbit on the run

When they dragged you to the courthouse, boy
What did you do with your wisdom
Well you cursed the judge again, cursed the judge again
Who you gonna blame for your trials and tribulations
Well I tried to tell you
But you run and hide
Down by the trestle bridge
With a .45
It weren't no lady
No, with scorpion
Well, you're just another rabbit on the run
You're just another rabbit on the run
You're just another rabbit on the run
