Trouble and Tea - Manfred Mann

I come home from work at night

Sure enough she’ll start a fight

Ah, she gets me down all right

That woman of mine

Says she has too much to do

Ah, but if she only knew

How I’ve grown weary too

With her all the time

She’s always brewing trouble and tea

She doesn’t seem to care about me, no no

And I’m not coming home to hear her moan and groan

No no no no

I return to find no drink

Washing-up pile in the sink?

Little did I ever think

That life would be so

How I wish I could return

To the days for which I yearn

But we have to live and learn

And she’ll have to go

She’s always brewing trouble and tea

She doesn’t seem to care about me, no no

And I’m not coming home to hear her moan and groan

No no no no

Trouble and tea

You don’t care about me

Trouble and tea

Don’t care about me

No no no no no no

Don’t care about me no more

Trouble and tea

Don’t care about me
