Trouble in mind, I'm blue

But I won't be blue always,

'Cause that sun is gonna shine in my back door someday



I'm going down to the river

I'm going top take me a rocking chair

and if the blues don't leave me, I rock on away from here



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, that's true

I have almost lost my mind

Life ain't worth living, I feel like I could die



Trouble in mind, I'm blue

My poor heart is healing slow

I've never had such trouble in my whole life before



I'm gonna lay my head on some lonesome railroad line

and let that 2:19 special ease my troubled mind



Trouble in mind, I'm blue,

But I won't be blue always

'Cause that sun is gonna shine in my back door someday
