Should have been diff’rent, but it wasn't diff’rent,
Was the...same old story, dear John and so long
Should have fit like a glove, should have fit like a ring
Like a diamond ring, a token of true love
Should have all worked out, but it didn't
She should be here now, but she isn't

(Chorus:)
There's your trouble, there's your trouble
You keep seeing double with the wrong one
You can’t see I love you, you can’t see she doesn't
But you just keep a-holding on
There's your trouble

So now you're thinking 'bout all you're missing
How...deep you're sinking, round and round and dragging down
Why don't you cash in your chips, why don't you call it a loss
Not such a big loss, chalk it up, better luck
Could have been true love, but it wasn't
It should all add up, but it doesn't

(Chorus:)
There's your trouble, there's your trouble
You keep seeing double with the wrong one
You can’t see I love you, you can’t see she doesn't
But you just keep a-holding on
There's your trouble

(Instrumental)

Should have all worked out, but it didn't
She should be here now, but she isn't

(Chorus:)
There's your trouble, there's your trouble
You keep seeing double with the wrong one
You can’t see I love you, you can’t see she doesn't
But you just keep a-holding on

There's your trouble...
There's your trouble...
There's your trouble...
There's your trouble...
There's your trouble
