Nothin’ But Trouble Foghat

Peverett / Price

For the love of a woman, well many a man
Has wound up cryin', tryin' to understand
I've had my share of heartache and pain
I'm not worried now, I'm not ashamed

My first time lover I was just seventeen
We made love and I was lost in a dream
She said that nothin' would ever go wrong
I woke up one mornin' - guess what? - she was gone

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, love ain't nothin' but trouble
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, love ain't nothin' but trouble

So many nights I spent alone
Just me and that damn telephone
Holdin' for love, but waiting in vain
The same old feelin', and it's drivin' me insane

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, love ain't nothin' but trouble
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, love ain't nothin' but trouble

{Rod - Slide Solo}

For the love of a woman, I searched high and low
Hopin' that someday I'd be troubled no more
I guess I was wrong in so many ways
Now I'll be in trouble for the rest of my days
