I don't gamble, I don't fight
|
I don't be hangin' in the bars at night
|
Yeah I used to be a fighter but
|
Now I am a wiser man
|
|
I don't drink much, I don't smoke
|
I don't be hardly mess around with no dope
|
Yeah I used to be a problem but
|
Now I am a careful man
|
|
Chorus:
|
But if you used to want to see a commotion
|
You shoulda seen the man that I used to be
|
I was trouble in perpetual motion
|
Trouble with a capital "T"
|
Stayin' out late, havin' fun
|
And shot off every single shot in my gun
|
Yeah I used to be a lover but
|
Now I'm an older man
|
|
Chorus
|
|
But if you used to want to see a commotion
|
You shoulda seen the man that I used to be
|
I was trouble in perpetual motion
|
Trouble with a capital "T"
|
Stayin' out late, havin' fun
|
And shot off every single shot in my gun
|
Yeah I used to be a terror but
|
Now I am a tired man
|
Yeah I used to be a terror but
|
Now I am a tired man
