A very simple blues tune. I would love to hear what people think of this track.

Re: Never Gave Nobody Trouble
Thanks to Rachel for the corrections!Couldn't pay the mortgage
And it broke my baby's heart
I couldn't pay the mortgage
It broke my baby's heart
I never gave nobody trouble
But it ain't too late to start
Don't wanna break no window
Don't wanna burn no car
Don't wanna break no window
And I don't wanna burn your car
You got a right to all your riches
But you let it go too far
You sail the mighty ocean
On a yacht designed for you
You sail the mighty ocean
On a yacht designed for you
Yeah, but the ocean's thick with garbage
You ain't gonna make it through
I never gave nobody trouble
I'm a law and order man
I never gave nobody trouble
I'm a law and order man
I said, I never gave nobody trouble
But you know god damn well that I can

The line you're not sure of is: "I'm a law and order man"
Also, in the previous verse, it's: "yeah, but the ocean's thick with garbage"
And another very tiny correction (sorry for my compulsiveness): "you got a right to all your riches"
