Trouble in Paradise Lyrics by James Carothers

Honky Tonk Land

2014

[Verse]
Man and a women just love all day
All they needed, they had it made
But the devil was watching
With eyes of green
He said, “come here woman and listen”
He said, “Come here, look at what I can do
You really ought to try this tasty fruit
It’ll make you happy, It’ll make you wise.”
Soft words spoken with a voice like wine
[Chorus]
The devil came talking with a voice of wine
Silver tone made a woman go blind
Woman taken in with bad advice
Looks like trouble in paradise
[Verse]
When a man love a woman and thе vows are made
They both gеt a job and they work all day
Gotta make payments on the house and cars
They’re selling their souls for a credit card
The woman gets tired and the man gets mad
Ain’t nothing what life they once had
Yeah, they’re getting their stuff
But at a real high price
Looks like trouble in paradise
[Chorus]
The devil came talking with a voice of wine
Silver tone made em’ both go blind
They’re taken in with bad advice
It looks like trouble in paradise
[Verse]
Well they both keep working and the woman goes home
Spends a lot of time looking at her phone
Man stays late like he does each day
But they’re not talking too much anyway
I met somebody and she talks so fine
Says “you ought to come by and see me sometime”
Wooahhhhh
[Chorus]
The devil came talking with a voice of wine
Looking so good
She’s talking so fine
Man taken in with bad advice
It looks like trouble in paradise
