"Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble" is the debut single by DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince, from their 1987 debut album Rock the House. The music is built around a sample from the theme tune of the 1960s television series I Dream of Jeannie. It was featured in the 8th episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air where Will and Carlton were battling over a girl. The lyrics "nothing but trouble" were remixed by Jazzy Jeff in Deep, Deep, Trouble from The Simpsons album, Sing the Blues. In the song, Will Smith warns his crew to stay away from young women, and recounts some unfortunate (but humorous) experiences with them. In the end of the 1988 version, Jazzy Jeff references two of the duo's further singles, "Parents Just Don't Understand" and "Nightmare on My Street." The song was only released on Vinyl.
