[Intro]
Yeah...

Wanna give it up
Gotta give it up
Can't give it up

[Verse 1]
Ah, yeah
Oh, mama, oh, oh
The money's run out
And I'm a hungry man
Oh, mama, ooh
You see, I--I'm a--hurtin' man
I was just a boy
When they told me
"God love ya"
"You're insane"
Here I am
Pistol in my hand
Judge and jury
One the same

[Chorus]
I got trouble with the sweet stuff, oh yeah
I got trouble with the sweet stuff, oh yeah
And I'm never ever gonna shake it
Shake it
Trouble with the sweet stuff
Trouble with the sweet stuff
[Verse 2]
Oooo, bang bang
They shot me down
Caught me
Robbing the bank again
Say I'm crazy
I'm a desperate man
Nah, right (C'mon)
Daddy in the junk shop alley, babe
Tryin' to smoke that stuff
I said
I can't believe it (Ooh, give it up)

[Chorus]
Ooo, trouble with the sweet stuff, oh yeah
I got trouble with the sweet stuff
And I'm never ever gonna shake it
Shake it

[Bridge]
Don't wanna give it up
Don't wanna give it up
Ooo yeah
Shake it
Got to give it up
Don't wanna give it up
Don't wanna give it up
[Verse 3]
Trouble with the sweet stuff, oh yeah
Mommy's in the graveyard
Pushed her oh-so long
Baby ain't cryin'
Cradle's cold, long gone
And me, mama, mama
Yes, when the situation
Breaks down
You've got trouble, trouble
Bang bang
They shot me down
Caught me robbin' d' bank again
(Are you crazy?)
Baby, oh yeah
I'm a desperate man
Daddy in the junk shop alley, babe
Tryin' to smoke that stuff
And me
Hah , ooh, never gonna shake it
Baby, yeah
(Ooh, give it up)

[Chorus]
Trouble with the sweet stuff, oh yeah
I got trouble with the sweet stuff, oh yeah
Ow, trouble with the sweet stuff, baby
And I'm never, never, never, never, ever gonna shake it
[Verse 4]
I want
(Don't wanna give it up)
Trouble with the sweet stuff, yeah
Believe me, babe
Shake it
Can't give it up
Come on and shake it
Yeah
Daddy's in the junk shop alley, babe
Tryin' to smoke that stuff, oh yeah
Yeah, gonna shake it
Can't give it up
Can't give it up
Do you feel pain
The same way I feel pain, babe?
(Give it up)
Breathe the same air
I gotta give it up
Wanna give it up
Can't give it up
Gotta give it up

[Outro]
Give it up
Give it up…
