The trouble boys came in
I guessed they'd been out fightin' and ravin'
It wasn't long before they moved in and picked up
The girls we brought to the dance at the night spot

It closed at ten so I had to move fast
To get my baby back from the trouble boys

Twenty five guys from the east side of the city
Kings of hell raising in the neighborhood
Well, one of them walked up and started dancin' with my girl
Who was cryin' 'cause I didn't stop him

All I could say to my baby was
"Honey, this man is bigger than the both of us"

He's a trouble boy and there's trouble boys all around me
No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face
I don't know anyone who'll stand face to face
With the trouble boys, yeah, the trouble boys

Well, I thought to myself it's time to make my move
I breathed my last sigh and I started to groove with my baby
Who was still dancin' with the other guy
By the look in her eye I was a martyr

She knew I was dead
'Cause no one cuts in on the trouble boy

Yeah, the trouble boys and the trouble boys all around me
No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face
I don't know anyone who'll stand face to face
With the trouble boys, yeah, the trouble boys

Twenty five gorillas all around me
I was shakin' like a leaf on a autumn tree
The leader came up and he grabbed my hand
And he shook it like a brother, didn't crush it after all

He said, "Good shot buddy, you're the only guy
Who's stood up to a trouble boy"

Yeah, the trouble boy and the trouble boys all around me
No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face
I don't know anyone who'll stand face to face
With the trouble boys, yeah, the trouble boys

No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face
But I know someone who can stand face to face
With the trouble boys, yeah, the trouble boys

No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face
But I know somebody who can stand face to face
With the trouble boys, yeah, the trouble boys

No one likes gettin' sand kicked in their face
But I know somebody

At the end of every working day
I hurry home as fast as I can
grab myself a bite
'cause since you left me I'm a lonely man
I crack out a can of something
settle down in my chair
from that moment 'till the spot disappears
man, I could be anywhere

I'm pluggin' in my...Television
Turn it on...Television
Tune it in...Television
'n everything...Television
I'm lookin' at...Television
Just like a cat...Television
that little set...Television
It never quits
Let me tell you I don't care what's on if it's happy or sad
don't give a damn if it's good or bad
I'll sit and watch it 'till it drives me mad
just as long as it's on I'm glad

Now everybody that I used to know
they never come around no more
I don't go out either
'cause I ain't got nowhere to go
You see my best friend has been livin' in
ever since you've been gone
all I gotta do is activate that tube
and I don't have to miss you no more

I'm pluggin' in my...Television
Turn it on...Television
Tune it in...Television
'n everything...Television
I'm lookin' at...Television
Just like a cat...Television
that little set...Television
It never quits
Let me tell you I don't care what's on if it's happy or sad
don't give a damn if it's good or bad
I'll sit and watch it 'till it drives me mad
just as long as it's on I'm glad

There's a girl living in this town
She's a fox and she knows it well
All the fellows for miles around want to get her but they never will
Just to have a girl with so much class
They'd crawl a mile over broken glass
And she'd let em do it just for a game
Deborah's her name

Deborah
Heart breaking love making connissure
Deborah
Deborah's her name

She's the kind that never follows fashion
Gotta make up her own
All the other kids quick to catch on act like they've always known
But you should see em when the lights go down
Looking at her as she moves around
Pretty soon they're gonna look the same as the famous Deborah

Deborah
Heart breaking love making connissure
Deborah
Deborah's her name

One day when my ship comes in
I'm gonna make her wonder where I've been
I'll get some money and I'll jump in my car
I'll go and make a meal of Deborah
I'll take her driving up to the top
When we get started ain't gonna stop
I'm gonna go and pick that wild flower
And her name is Deborah

Deborah
Heart breaking love making connissure
Deborah
Deborah's her name
Deborah's her name
Deborah's her name
Deborah's her name

Berry

I am tired of you telling me what I ought to do
Stickin' your nose in my business and it don't concern you
It's my own business, it's my own business
Seems like the ones that want to tell you
They don't ever know as much as you

If I go buy a Cadillac convertible coupe
And all I got at home to eat is just onion soup
It's my own business, it's my own business
If I would rather ride around
In my own Cadillac convertible coupe

If I's a dignatary on Capitol Hill
And up and married me a waitress in a hot dog grill
It's my own business, it's my own business
Because I am not a juvenile
And I can go out at my own free wil

After workin' on my job and then drawin' my pay
If I want to go out and have a ball and throw it all away
It's my own business, it's my own business
'Cause I don't wait until tomorrow
To do something I could do today

In the heart of the city
Where the alligators roam

And l'm stepping up the hill
And i'm looking for a lover
Looking, Iooking everywhere
Well maybe I got a chance

Well in the heart of the city
Well it's part of the stars

On a thousand guitars

They're checking out meat
They know a bird in the hand

They're checking the meat
in the heart of the city
Well I said the heart, heart of the city
Oh yeah
Heart, heart of the city
