World of Trouble Lyrics

Lou Rawls

Translate to

I′m in a world of trouble
Don't know what to do
Supposed to be one woman′s man
But I am in love with two
One is my treasure
One is my treat
Both such a pleasure
'Cause they're both so sweet
I can′t put either of ′em down
That's why I′m slippin' ′round

Livin' double
In a world of trouble

Yes, it′s a world of trouble
I inhabit now
'Cause I got one more woman
Than the legal laws allow
Judges would jail me
Preachers would shout
Bad talk would nail me
If the truth got out
Polite society would frown
Claim I'm just a clown

Livin′ double
In a world of trouble

I do not dare reveal
The need I deeply feel
To my proper friends
It would scare ′em
They would chalk it up to greed
But what I deeply need
Is a new kind of two
Woman harem

I've got a world of trouble
A woman and a wife
The kind of situation
That could cost somebody′s life
Oh, but I'm gonna bear it
Long as I can
No, I don′t want to share it
With no other man
Oh Lord, my future's in a fog
I′m just a dirty dog

Livin' double
In a world of trouble
