Keep your troubles at bay
You can roll your money you can spill your guts
You can party all night until you're nuts – but hey,
Your troubles never go away
You can play a biggie, you can bang your drum
But at the end of the day you're still a bum – so hey
Your troubles never go away
You can walk in circles in an endless maze until one day you go blind
Or you can chase an echo of eternal love – in the windmills of your mind
Keep your troubles at bay – keep your troubles at bay
Cause they never go away – hey, hey
Keep your troubles at bay
Keep your troubles at bay – keep your troubles at bay
But they never really go away
They're gonna get you one day
You can be a gangster you can swing your gun
Spend a night in the slammer cause you're young and dumb- what can I say?
Your troubles never go away
You can find salvation in the eye of the storm
You can meet your maker and be reborn - but even then
Your troubles never really end
You can walk in circles in an endless maze until one day you go blind
Or you can chase an echo of eternal love in the windmills of your mind
Keep your troubles at bay
You may take a holiday and go to a sunny beach
But Mr Trouble stays in business
And you're never out of reach
And he'll come knocking on your door
Knock, knock, knock, knock
