Double Trouble
John Mayall/John McVie/Mick Taylor/Peter Ward Lyrics

Lay awake at night
I can't sleep because I'm so worried about my problems.

Oh so low I've been troubled
I feel sad and very distressed about my situation.

Can't keep a job
I can't seem to hold down a job for very long.

I'm laid off and having double trouble
I lost my job, and that's making my already difficult life even worse.

Hey, Hey, you can make it if you try
There's still hope, and things can get better if you try hard enough.

Baby, that's no lie
I'm not just saying this to make you feel better; it's the truth.

Living in generations of millionaires
I'm surrounded by people who are very wealthy and successful.

Hard for me to keep decent clothes to wear
Despite this, I struggle to afford basic items like good clothing.

Laugh at me walking
People make fun of me when they see me walking around with no job and no money.

I have no where to go
I'm homeless and don't have a place to live.

Bad luck and trouble has taken me
My life has been one misfortune after another, and it's really taken a toll on me.

Got no money show
I don't have any money to my name and can't afford to buy anything.

They say you can make it if you try
People often offer encouragement, telling me that if I just try hard enough, I can overcome my problems.

Generations of millionaires
Again, I'm surrounded by people who have a lot more wealth and success than I do.

Hard for me to keep decent clothes to wear
And yet, despite everything, I still struggle to afford basic necessities like good clothing.
