When you got trouble
Right here in River City with a capital T and that rhymes with P and that stands for pool!
That music man has to be a fake!
He talks like a con man
Sounds like a quack!
He’s one dishonest crook who cannot be trusted!
When you’ve got crime. Crime like an open sewer you cannot ignore. That music man has got to do some time
Ya’ got trouble. Right here in River City? Oh right here in River City with a capital T and that rhymes with P and that stands for pool!
Trouble right here in River City...
He’s got you believing when he says he’s here
To rectify some trifling irregularities. The facts won’t get straight! There isn’t any band! I said he’s just looking for suckers like you to exploit!
Now he’s got Marian thinking that she wants somebody like that. That is trouble with a capital “T!”. That rhymes with “P!”, That stands for “Pool!”
