  • If you've got trouble
    Then you've got less trouble than me
    You say you're worried
    You can't be as worried as me...ohh

    You're quite content to be bad
    With all the advantage you had over me
    Just 'cause you're troubled
    Then don't bring your troubles to me

    And don't think it's funny
    When you ask for money for things
    Especially when you're standing there
    Wearing diamonds and rings...ohh

    You think I'm softning her head
    Well try someone softer instead anything
    It's not so funny
    When you know what money can bring
    You'd better leave me alone

    I don't need a thing from you
    You'd better take yourself home
    Go and count a ring or two
    If you've got trouble
    Then you've got less trouble than me

    You say you're worried
    You can't be as worried as me
    You're quite contempt to be bad
    With all the advantage you had over me
    Just 'cause you're troubled
    Then don't bring your troubles to me

    You'd better leave me alone
    I don't need a thing from you
    You'd better take yourself home
    Go and count a ring or two
    If you've got trouble
    Then you've got less trouble than me

    You say you're worried
    You can't be as worried as me
    You're quite contempt to be bad
    With all the advantage you had over me

    Just 'cause you're troubled
    Then don't bring your troubles to me
    Just 'cause your troubled
    Then don't bring your troubles to me Writer/s: JOHN LENNON, PAUL MCCARTNEY

  • Carl from Apg, MdNot a bad song, despite being unreleased in 1965.
    "Act Naturally" studio recording was done later, in June of that year.
  • George from Belleville, NjI think this is a cool rock song.It moves,it has a solid rock beat and nice lead guitar.I agree with Freddy from Miami,Ringo rocks.He has a rugged style of singing that seems to match well with the song.
  • Freddy from Miami, FlAm i the only one who loves this song? Ringo rocks.
  • Green Puppet from Calgary, CanadaI like the Beatles but I agree with not putting on the album. The melody was under par.
