If it's not one thing then it's another
If it ain't trouble, gonna be bother
If you think it's me every time
Well maybe baby that's true

I've got a penny in my pocket
To last me all week long
The landlord came a knockin'
But the rent money is gone
I've got a bone to pick with someone
I'm not so sure why
Living in a daydream
With my head up in the sky
On the road well they are queuing
The roadworks never end
I'm trying to send a message
But I can't find how to send

My way or it's the highway
And if it's your way well there's the doorway
If it's my way well there's the highway
If it's your way there's the door

If it's not one thing then it's another
If it ain't trouble, gonna be bother
If you think it's me every time
Well maybe baby that's true

The police man's got his warrant
He waves it in his hand
Something about legalities
Stuff that I don't understand
Well it looks like I'll be leaving
I've got so much to take
I'm gonna have to do a moonlight flit
And shake shake shake it up baby

My way or it's the highway
And if it's your way well there's the doorway
If it's my way well there's the highway
If it's your way there's the door

If it's not one thing well it's another
If it ain't trouble, gonna be bother
If it ain't one thing well it's another
Maybe baby that's true

If it's not one thing well it's another
If it ain't trouble, gonna be bother
If you think it's me every time
Well maybe baby that's one thing well it's another
If it ain't trouble, gonna be bother
If it ain't one thing well it's another
If it ain't trouble, gonna be bother
If you think it's me every time
If you think it's me every time
If you think it's me every time
Well maybe baby that's true
Or maybe it's just you
Yeah maybe that's you
Or maybe baby that's you
