Trouble comes up on you
In a million different ways
The man who isn’t ready
Is the man who’s gonna pay
I took a step back
And I took a look around
I damped down the fire
And I gathered up the hounds
You never know what’s coming
So you gotta be wise
Gotta keep your balance
And open your eyes
I took a step back
And I took a look around
I kept myself frosty
While making the rounds
Knew a lot of good men
Who made a mistake
Didn’t see what was coming
Till it was too late
I took a step back
And I took a look around
You can’t ignore trouble
When it’s gaining ground
