The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

It's good to see you baby, it's been a long, long while

We're both a whole lot older, and seen a lot of miles

But things are really different now, since the good old days

And you've been in some trouble, since we went our separate ways

We'll have to say hello, maybe some other time instead

'Cause you're wanted by the police, and my wife thinks you're dead

Somebody spread the rumor, that you had lost your life

Least that's the way I heard it, and what I told my wife

Now here you're showin' up again, and talk is gettin' round

And I can see that one of us will have to leave this town

If you think that I want trouble, then you're crazy in your head

'Cause you're wanted by the police, and my wife thinks you're dead

You never called or wrote me, just up and disappeared

Nobody knew what happened, where you been for all these years

Now trouble's what you're lookin' like, cause trouble's where you've been

And I can see the kind of trouble you could get me in

You better pay attention to every word I said

'Cause you're wanted by the police, and my wife thinks you're dead

So good-bye to you baby, I'm glad we got to talk

But I'm faithful to my wife, and I don't ever break the law

I don't know where you're headed for, but I know where you been

We reminisced, now let's just go our separate ways again

Go find another ex-sweetheart to hang around instead

'Cause you're wanted by the police, and my wife thinks you're dead

I said you're wanted by the police, and my wife thinks you're dead
