That's the same old story every time
Me and my friends have committed no crime
Just cruisin' around, we ain't looking for a fight
Who would trust us, rockers can't be right

There's trouble in town and the gang's to blame
(Gang's to blame)
I was hangin' around and the police took my name
There's a trouble in, trouble in, trouble in town
Now they got a good reason to put us down

They put us against the wall
While all the outlaws take a little stroll
They're spending time with the wrong target
The guilty boys must be too hard to get

There's trouble in town and the gang's to blame
(Gang's to blame)
I was hangin' around and the police took my name
There's a trouble in, trouble in, trouble in town
Now they got a good reason to put us down
