Last Year's Model - Running After Trouble

I'm running after trouble
I've been running my whole life
I'm running after trouble
Trying to make it through the night
With a dream in my hand and a flickering light
I'm running after trouble
It'll be alright

It'll be alright

Broke into the world I was ten days late
My feet hit the ground, started running away
Daddy was preacher was a real bad man
Had a belt by by his side, holy book in his hand
Momma got a black eye from loving him right
Just pray a little harder it will change his life
Poppa had to lie and join the CIA
The whole town is proud of him for running away

Looking in the mirror, I can't change their mind, because I have his eyes

I'm running after trouble
I've been running my whole life
I'm running after trouble
Trying to make it through the night
With a dream in my hand and a flickering light
I'm running after trouble
It'll be alright

Got a call on the telephone saying he died
Happened before, hope it takes this time
Leave 'em a future better than your past
Only works if you're around to show them how to last

Looking in the mirror I can't change my mind because I see your eyes

I'm running after trouble
I've been running my whole life
I'm running after trouble
Trying to make it through the night
With a dream in my hand and a flickering light
I'm running after trouble
It'll be alright

I'm running after trouble
I'm running after trouble

Running after trouble
I've been running my whole life
I'm running after trouble
Trying to make it through the night
With a dream in my hand and a flickering light
I'm running after trouble
It'll be alright
