I play an old piano
From nine till a-half past one
I'm tryin' to make a livin'
Watchin' everybody else a-havin' fun
Well, I don't miss much
That ever happens on a dance hall floor
Mercy! Look what just walked through that door!
Well, hello T-R-O-U-B-L-E !
What in the world you're doin' A-L-O-N-E?
Say, hay, good L-double O-K-I-N-G
I smell T-R-O-U-B-L-E !
I was a little bitty baby
When my papa hit the skids
Mama had a time
Tryin' to raise nine kids
Told me not to stare
'Cause it was impolite
And did the best she could
To try to raise me right, hey
But mama never told me
'Bout a-nothing like a-Y-O-U
Say, your mama must have been
Another something or another, too
Hey, good L-double O-K-I-N-G
I smell T-R-O-U-B-L-E
Well, you talk about a woman
I've seen a lot of others
But too much something'
And not enough another
You've got it all together
Like a lovin' machine
Lookin' like glory
And walkin' like a dream
Mother Nature's sure been good to Y-O-U
Well, your mother must have been
Another good lookin' other, too
Say, hey, good L-double O-K-I-N-G
I smell T-R-O-U-B-L-E
Well, you talk about a trouble-makin'
Hunka pokey bait,
The men are gonna love
And all the women gonna hate
Reminding them of everything
They never gonna be
Maybe the beginning of
The World War III
Oh, the world ain't ready
For nothin' like a Y-O-U
Well, I bet your mama must have been
A good looking other, too
Say hey, say hey, say hey,
Good L-double O-K-I-N-G
I smell T-R-O-U-B-L-E
Say hey hey, say hey hey, say hey hey,
Say hey hey, say hey hey, say hey hey,
