I play an old piano from nine till a half past one
Tryin' to make a livin' watchin' everybody else havin' fun
Well, I don't miss much if it happens on a dance hall floor
Mercy - look what just walked through that door
Well, hello T-R-O-U-B-L-E
What in the world are you doin' A-L-O-N-E?
Say, hey good L-Double-O-K-I-N-G
I smell T-R-O-U-B-L-E
I was a little bitty baby when my papa hit the skids
Mama had a time tryin' to raise nine kids
Told me not to stare'cause it was impolite
And did the best she could to try to raise me right
Hey! But mama never told me 'bout nothin' like-a Y-O-U
Say, your mama must have been another somethin'-or another too
Say, hello good L-Double-O-K-I-N-G
I smell T-R-O-U-B-L-E
Well, you talk about a woman: I've seen a lotta others
With too much somethin' and not enough of another
You've got it all together like a lovin' machine
You're lookin' like glory and walkin' like a dream
Mother Nature's sure been good to Y-O-U
Well your mother must have been another good-lookin' mother too
Say, hey, good L-Double-O-K-I-N-G
I smell T-R-O-U-B-L-E
Well, you talk about a trouble-makin' hunka' pokey bait
That men are gonna love and all the women gonna hate
Remindin' them of everything they're never gonna be
Maybe the beginning of a World War Three
Cause the world ain't ready for nothin' like a Y-O-U
Well I bet your mother musta been a good-lookin' mother too
Say, hey, good L-Double-O-K-I-N-G
I smell T-R-O-U-B-L-E
Hey, hey
