Stepping out, to take a walk a night to see The shadows of the moonlight, when this guy Began to follow me, and now you see That's the trouble Then he took my hand, to my surprise He stared so seriously, in my eyes and said "Why, I'd like for you to come on home with me" That's the trouble Every man I see, that's the trouble Taking every little thing so heavily That's the trouble if you wanna let you be That's the trouble if you really wanna be free Well I did not realise he was the Serious type of guy, when I read his letter Which said "I love you, will you marry me?" That's the trouble Every man I see, that's the trouble Taking every little thing so heavily That's the trouble if you wanna let you be That's the trouble if you really wanna be free
