Suitcase

I got a suitcase I take it everywhere I go
I got a suitcase I take it everywhere I go
It's just a big old bag of trouble
Trouble is all I know
I met a girl, fell in love
And our love was true
I met a girl, fell in love
And our love was true
Well now I found out
Lord, she had a big old suitcase too
So we put our bags together and made a home for two
People we put our bags together you know we made a home for two
then along came the children
Gave them all a little suitcase too
Well the house got too small
And the bags got too big
We were holding on to everything
We ever said or did
When I complained about the salt in
her black eyed peas
She put her hand on her hip and she told me to leave
And take my suitcase and get on out that door
You're gonna hear from my lawyer
I can't take it no more
I had to get down on my knees... beg her to let me stay
I had to get down on my knees... beg her to let me stay
I said, baby we got a whole lotta baggage
Let's call somebody and have them hauled away
I got a suitcase I take it everywhere I go
I got a suitcase I take it everywhere I go
It's just a big old bag of trouble
I don't need no more
