Ole Man Trouble (Live At the Whisky a Go Go, 1968)

Thank you very much ladies and gentleman

Just before we continue with the show

We'd like to remind each and every one that we have on sale tonight

Right back here at the end of the building

Otis Redding souvenir pictures

So if you'd like to have your picture taken

Just step back there and see Nat the Cat

"Have camera, will travel"

And he'd be very glad to accommodate you

That's Otis Redding souvenir pictures

And you could have your picture taken

But now, are you ready for star time?

Oh, you can make more noise than that!

Are you ready for star time?

(Yeah!)

Right now, ladies and gentlemen

It gives me great pleasure to present to you at this particular time

The young man that sings such songs as:

Pain in My Heart

I'm Dependin' on You

I Want a Little Respect

And above all, I Got to Have Some Security

So let's welcome to the stage with a great big round of applause

The star of the show, Volt Recordings' star

The one and only Otis Redding

I'm gonna sock it to 'em, man

Yeah, we gonna go at your groove now

(Otis Redding God of the rhyme)

One, two, three, four

Ole man trouble, leave me alone

Go find you someone else to pick on

I live my life in doubt, do you see now, now?

Ole man trouble

Please just stay away from me, ole man

Ole man, yeah, yeah

Yeah

Oh how, look like I'm down on my luck

Why don't you send fate to just help pick me up?

Ole man trouble

Help me wash away all my fears, ole man

Oh, I'm talkin' 'bout
