[Verse 1]
I went to church on Sunday, I swung my chariot low
Reached up to kiss the deacon, he said "You'd better go"

[Chorus]
Trouble, I'm in trouble with him
Trouble's where I'm going
Trouble's the only place I've ever been

[Verse 2]
Let's buy a watermelon, swallow all the seeds
Forget what Mama told us, do everything we please

[Chorus]
Trouble, I'm in trouble with him
Trouble's where I'm going
Trouble's the only place I've ever been

[Verse 3]
Let's pour a little whiskey, drink a little gin
Listen to Merle Haggard like he's loving me again

[Chorus]
Trouble, I'm in trouble with him
Trouble's where I'm going
Trouble's the only place I've ever been
[Verse 4]
Let's turn off the TV, I'm tired of CNN
Let's throw a little party, invite some sinners in

[Chorus]
Trouble, I'm in trouble with him
Trouble's where I'm going
Trouble's the only place I've ever been

[Verse 5]
I'll paint your toenails, baby, you paint my toenails too
We'll take a walk down Main Street and watch what people do

[Chorus]
Trouble, I'm in trouble with him
Trouble's where I'm going
Trouble's the only place I've ever been

[Verse 6]
There's people building prisons for people like you and me
Some people just can't stand people like us being free

[Chorus]
Trouble, I'm in trouble with him
Trouble's where I'm going
Trouble's the only place I've ever been
[Verse 7]
Sooner or later, darling, everybody's gotta go
Let's you and me leave early, get a seat on the first row

[Chorus]
Trouble, I'm in trouble with him
Trouble's where I'm going
Trouble's the only place I've ever been
