Lyrics
they called the police you can plainly see
that ole trouble sure follows me
Such preachin the hens were all singin too, it was awful dark and i had no light Hank, i scrambled around and got hold of a goose
I married a gal from ole alabam, instrumental
Now me and my wife s a goin down the street, now me and my wife s a goin down the street Trouble, i s invited out to supper the other night
i run red lights turned corners and got caught just my luck
And the folks all thought i should turn him loose, but to my surprise i got fooled
Choppin briars and sleepin by myself, rooster s prayin takin up a collection and payin off in eggs
I jumped rose bushes dodged bullets and fell in the creek, i run red lights turned corners and got caught just my luck
Instrumental, that ole trouble sure follows me
they all got away but poor ole me
And i stayed thirty days with the jailor actin a big shot nice man, i scrambled around and got hold of a goose, and they put me to plow with an ole blind mule
And i stayed thirty days with the jailor actin a big shot nice man, i run red lights turned corners and got caught just my luck
Such preachin the hens were all singin too, and boy you ought to seen me ball the jack
i went to town with the sheriff he introduced me to the judge
And i thought i heard a chicken sneeze, i s invited out to supper the other night, now me and my wife s a goin down the street
Such preachin the hens were all singin too, when my ole used to be i chanced to meet Trouble, when my ole used to be i chanced to meet
and they put me to plow with an ole blind mule
and they put me to plow with an ole blind mule
such preachin the hens were all singin too
And they put me to plow with an ole blind mule, and boy you ought to seen me ball the jack, they called the police you can plainly see
Instrumental, she gave me the wink and my wife looked back, and the folks all thought i should turn him loose
instrumental
When my ole used to be i chanced to meet, rooster s prayin takin up a collection and payin off in eggs
but to my surprise i got fooled
instrumental
and some of the boys they started a fight
Instrumental, i was down in the barnyard on my knees
I run red lights turned corners and got caught just my luck, it was awful dark and i had no light
i married a gal from ole alabam
When my ole used to be i chanced to meet, now me and my wife s a goin down the street
instrumental
I married a gal from ole alabam, that ole trouble sure follows me
Such preachin the hens were all singin too, they called the police you can plainly see
And givin out a hymn to the hens upstairs, and the folks all thought i should turn him loose, now me and my wife s a goin down the street
and i thought i heard a chicken sneeze
I was down in the barnyard on my knees, and boy you ought to seen me ball the jack
and some of the boys they started a fight
but to my surprise i got fooled
And the folks all thought i should turn him loose, and i stayed thirty days with the jailor actin a big shot nice man Snow, i married a gal from ole alabam
Instrumental, cleanin new ground
I went to town with the sheriff he introduced me to the judge, it was just an ole rooster sayin his prayers Trouble, she gave me the wink and my wife looked back
Such preachin the hens were all singin too, i s invited out to supper the other night
