Trouble in mind, I'm blue But I won't be blue always 'Cause that sun is gonna shine in my back door someday Trouble in mind, I'm blue But I won't be blue always 'Cause that sun is gonna shine, shine in my back door someday Trouble in mind, that's true I have almost lost my mind Like lying, not living Feel like I could die I'm gonna lay my head On that lonesome railroad line And let the Two-Nonteen train ease my troubled mind Trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble in mind I am blue, my heart is beating slow Never had no trouble, never had no trouble in my life before I'm all alone at midnight, my lamp is burning low I never had so much trouble in my life before I'm gonna lay my head On that lonesome railroad line But when I hear that whistle Lord I'm gonna pull it back I'm going down to the river, take along my rocking chair If the blues don't leave me, I'll rock away from there Oh well trouble oh trouble on my worried mind I'm laughing just to keep from crying Just to keep from crying Just to keep from crying Trouble on my worried mind
