Well let me tell you all a little story   'Bout the man who lives down at the top of the stairs   Well he worked all his life for his children and his wife   And he opened up a little store down there      Well one night late while he was lockin' the gate   A kid came in and said   "You know what I want" and he said      "I ain't lookin' for trouble   And I know what you came here to do   I ain't lookin' for trouble"   And the kid said   "Trouble's come lookin' for you"      Well I swore that I would find him   I said that I would track him down   And in a dirty darkened alleyway I said   "Today is your day whatever you do don't turn around"      Well he looked up to me and said that I can see   That you know who I am and where I've been   And he said      "I ain't lookin' for trouble   And I know what you came here to do   I ain't lookin' for trouble"   And I said   "Trouble's come lookin' for you"      Well I've spent four years of my life here   In this cold gray prison cell   With my cigarettes and my magazine   And my life, it feels like hell      Well I hear footsteps in the hall   And I know they're takin' me away and all   And I said, "I don't wanna die"   And I said      "I ain't lookin' for trouble   And I know what you came here to do   I ain't lookin' for trouble"   And he said   "Trouble's come lookin' for you"
