I've come of heart, baby, but now I'm cool
   I didn't make it surely, playin' by the rules
   I've come of heart, but now I'm fine
   I'm checkin' trouble, sure movin' down the line
   I've come of heart, but that's OK
   'Cause Trouble Man don't get in my way
  
   I've come of heart, baby
   I've been for real
   With a trouble man
   I'm gonna keep movin', i'm gonna roll to town
   I've come of heart, come on, get down
   There's only three things that's for sure
   Taxes, death and trouble
  
   Well this I know, baby
   This I know babe
   Let the sweat through you
   Should you think about me
   Get me singin', yeah, yeah, ooo
  
   I've come of heart, I had to fight
   Take care of my business with all my might
   I've come of heart, I had to win
   Then start all over and then again
   I've come of heart, but that's OK
   'Cause Trouble Man don't get in my way
  
   I've heard some places and I've seen some places
   I've never had tensions, I give my directions
   When people say; that's OK, they don't bother me
   I'm ready to make it, don't care 'bout the weather
   Don't care 'bout no trouble, got myself together
   I've seen the kind of protection's all around me
  
   I've come of heart, baby
   I've been for real
   With the Trouble Man
   I'm gonna keep movin', goin' goin' tight
   I've come of heart, come on, get down
   There's only three things for sure
   Taxes, death and trouble
  
   This I know, baby
   This I know, baby
   Hey now, let it sweat, baby, oh
  
   I've come of heart, but now I'm cool
   I didn't make it, baby, playin' by the rules
   I've come of heart, but now I'm fine
   I'm checkin' trouble, sure movin' down the line
   I've come of heart, but that's OK
   'Cause Trouble Man don't get in my way
   Don't get in my way
   Movin' down the line
