Lyrics

(D)Trou ble in town

be cause they cut my (D)broth er down,

be cause my sis ter can’t (D)wear her crown,

there’s (Bb)trou ble, there’s trou ble in town.

(D)Blood on the beat

oh cause my they good ness, there’s (D)blood on the beat,

the jun gle or the (D)law of the street,

there’s (Bb)blood on, there’s blood on the beat.

And I get no shel ter

and I get no peace

and I nev er get re

leased.

And I get no com

fort

and I get no name,

ev ’ry thing is get

ting strained.

There must be some way

or it’s go ing to kick off some day,

there must be some way.
