Lyrics

TROUBLE

Verse 1:
In a room full of ?2?s?, I?d say you?re a ?3?
With the slim pickins, you look good to me
A drink, nah, I?m heading out the door
You don?t live with your mama? Hmm, maybe a ?4?
Alright one drink, but I really can?t stay
No crazy ?ex??, maybe an ?8?
Aw, pour another round and make mine a double
By then you?ll be a ?9? and I?ll be headed for?

Chorus 1:
TROUBLE tonight
Tryin? to make Mr. Wrong, Mr. Right
Gonna transfer all my hopes and dreams to you
?Cuz I don?t know when I?m ever gonna find my ?10?
But for now? baby you?ll do

Verse 2:
RSVP, the wedding?s in June
I marked ?Salmon for one?, and booked a room
Hors d?oeuvres, white wine, the wedding mingle
Lookin? at left hands to see who?s single
YMCA, Twist and Shout
Doin? the Chicken Dance, I think he?s checkin me out
So he?s 5?7?, I?m 5?9?
Heels off, Lights low, he?s lookin? fine (to chorus 1))

Bridge:
My mama raised me right, I?m a hell of a catch
And I ain?t too shy to brag
I got a date with fate, I think he?s worth the wait
So tonight, I?m going home stag

Chorus 2:
I don?t need no trouble tonight
Tryin? to make Mr. Wrong, Mr Right
?Cuz I believe my hopes and dreams are gonna come true
Still I don?t know when, I?m ever gonna find my 10
But for now, baby we?re through
