I'm Lonesome for Trouble Tonight

Loretta Lynn · Woman of the World/To Make a Man [1969]

He's nothin' but trouble

But he's always on my mind

I tried all I know to do

To leave trouble behind.

I can hardly live without him

I even miss the fights

I'm lonesome for trouble tonight.



I'm lonesome for trouble tonight

And I ache for troubles arms to hold me tight

Everytime we get together

Seems like nothin' comes out right.

Lord, I'm lonesome for trouble tonight.



--- Instrumental ---



Unhappy when I'm with him

I'm unhappy when I'm not

I've tried so hard to get along

but trouble's all I've got.

It's hard to have somebody

On your mind but out of sight

Yes, I'm lonesome for trouble tonight.



I'm lonesome for trouble

And I ache for troubles arms to hold me tight

Everytime we get together

Seems like nothin' comes out right.

Lord, I'm lonesome for trouble tonight...
