Ya Got Trouble

Ya Got Trouble - Robert Preston[00:00:00]

Written by:Meredith Willson[00:00:00]

Ya got trouble understand[00:00:00]

Friend either you're closing your eyes[00:00:00]

To a situation you do not wish to acknowledge[00:00:01]

Or you are not aware of the caliber of disaster indicated[00:00:04]

By the presence of a pool table in your community[00:00:07]

Well ya got trouble my friend right here[00:00:11]

I say trouble right here in river city[00:00:13]

Why sure I'm a billiard player[00:00:15]

Certainly mighty proud I say[00:00:16]

I'm always mighty proud to say it[00:00:17]

I consider that the hours I spend[00:00:19]

With a cue in my hand are golden[00:00:20]

Help you cultivate horse sense[00:00:23]

And a cool head and a keen eye[00:00:24]

Jever' take and try to find[00:00:27]

An iron clad leave for yourself[00:00:28]

From a three rail billiard shot[00:00:29]

But just as I say[00:00:31]

It takes judgment brains and maturity to score[00:00:32]

In a balkline game[00:00:34]

I say that any boob can take[00:00:35]

And shove a ball in a pocket[00:00:37]

And I call that sloth[00:00:39]

The first big step on the road[00:00:40]

To the depths of deg ra day[00:00:41]

I say first medicinal wine from a teaspoon[00:00:43]

Then beer from a bottle[00:00:46]

An' the next thing ya know[00:00:47]

Your son is playin' for money[00:00:48]

In a pinch back suit[00:00:50]

And list'nin to some big out a town jasper[00:00:51]

Hearin' him tell about horse race gamblin'[00:00:53]

Not a wholesome trottin' race no[00:00:56]

But a race where they set down right on the horse[00:00:57]

Like to see some stuck up jockey boy[00:01:00]

Settin' on dan patch[00:01:01]

Make your blood boil[00:01:03]

Well I should say[00:01:04]

Now friends lemme tell you what I mean[00:01:05]

Ya got one two three four[00:01:07]

Five six pockets in a table[00:01:09]

Pockets that mark the diff'rence[00:01:11]

Between a gentlemen and a bum[00:01:13]

With a capital B[00:01:15]

And that rhymes with P and that stands for pool[00:01:16]

And all week long your river city[00:01:18]

Youth'll be fritterin' away[00:01:20]

I say your young men'll be fritterin'[00:01:21]

Fritterin' away their noontime[00:01:23]

Suppertime choretime too[00:01:25]

Get the ball in the pocket[00:01:26]

Never mind gettin' dandelions pulled[00:01:28]

Or the screen door patched or the beefsteak pounded[00:01:29]

Never mind pumpin' any water[00:01:32]

'Til your parents are caught with the cistern empty[00:01:33]

On a saturday night and that's trouble[00:01:35]

Yes you got lots and lots of trouble[00:01:37]

I'm thinkin' of the kids in the knickerbockers[00:01:38]

Shirt tail young ones peekin' in the pool[00:01:40]

Hall window after school ya got trouble folks[00:01:42]

Right here in river city[00:01:44]

Trouble with a capital T[00:01:46]

And that rhymes with P and that stands for pool[00:01:47]

Now I know all you folks are the right kind of parents[00:01:49]

I'm gonna be perfectly frank[00:01:52]

Would ya like to know what kinda conversation goes[00:01:54]

On while they're loafin' around that hall[00:01:56]

They be tryin' out bevo tryin' out cubebs[00:01:58]

Tryin' out tailor mades like cigarette fiends[00:02:00]

And braggin' all about[00:02:03]

How they're gonna cover up a tell tale breath with sen sen[00:02:04]

One fine night they leave the pool hall[00:02:06]

Headin' for the dance at the arm'ry[00:02:09]

Libertine men and scarlet women[00:02:10]

And rag time shameless music[00:02:12]

That'll grab your son your daughter[00:02:14]

With the arms of a jungle animal instinct[00:02:16]

Mass staria[00:02:18]

Friends the idle brain is the devil's playground[00:02:19]

Trouble oh we got trouble[00:02:22]

Right here in river city[00:02:23]

With a capital T[00:02:25]

That rhymes with P[00:02:26]

And that stands for pool[00:02:27]

That stands for pool[00:02:28]

We've surely got trouble[00:02:29]

Right here in river city[00:02:31]

Right here[00:02:32]

Gotta figure out a way[00:02:33]

To keep the young ones moral after school[00:02:34]

Mothers of river city[00:02:40]

Heed the warning before it's too late[00:02:41]

Watch for the tell tale signs of corruption[00:02:43]

The moment your son leaves the house[00:02:46]

Does he rebuckle his knickerbockers below the knee[00:02:48]

Is there a nicotine stain on his index finger[00:02:53]

A dime novel hidden in the corn crib[00:02:55]

Is he starting to memorize jokes from capt[00:02:58]

Billy's whiz bang[00:03:01]

Are certain words creeping into his conversation[00:03:03]

Words like like 'swell'[00:03:08]

And 'so's your old man'[00:03:13]

Well if so my friends[00:03:15]

Ya got trouble[00:03:17]

Right here in river city[00:03:19]

With a capital T[00:03:20]

And that rhymes with P[00:03:21]

And that stands for pool[00:03:22]

We've surely got trouble[00:03:24]

Right here in river city[00:03:26]

Remember the maine plymouth rock and the golden rule[00:03:28]

Oh we've got trouble[00:03:33]

We're in terrible terrible trouble[00:03:34]

That game with the fifteen numbered balls is a devil's tool[00:03:36]

Oh yes we got trouble trouble trouble[00:03:40]

With a T[00:03:44]

Gotta rhyme it with p[00:03:46]

And that stands for pool[00:03:48]
