Trouble in Mind - Lonnie Johnson, Otis Spann

Trouble in mind;

I’m blue

But I won’t be blue always

Because the sun’s gonna shine

In my back door someday

I’m gonna lay my head

On some lonesome railroad line

And let that 2:19

Pass through my worried mind

Trouble in mind;

I’m blue

And I’ve almost lost my mind

Sometimes I feel like livin'

Sometimes I feel like dyin'

I’m going down to the river

I’m going to buy me a rockin' chair

And if the blues don’t leave me

I’m goin' to rock away from here

Trouble in mind;

I’m blue

My ol' heart is a beating slow

I never had so much trouble

In my life before

My good gal, she’s gone to Sydney

And it sure did grieve my mind

When you see me laughing

I’m just a trying to keep from cryin'

Trouble in mind…
