[00:00:00] 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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:00:34] In a balkline game

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:03] Make your blood boil

[00:01:04] Well I should say

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:15] With a capital B

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

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

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

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

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

[00:01:25] Suppertime choretime too

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:02:18] Mass staria

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

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

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

[00:02:25] With a capital T

[00:02:26] That rhymes with P

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

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

[00:02:32] Right here

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

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

[00:02:40] Mothers of river city

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:03:17] Ya got trouble

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

[00:03:20] With a capital T

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