Trouble in mind I'm blue but I won't be blue always
The sun's gonna shine in my backyard someday

I'm gonna lay my head on some lonesome railroad line
And let that old 2-20 pacify my mind

Goin' down to the river gonna take me a rocking chair
And if the blues don't leave me I'm gonna rock away from here

When you see me smile there's trouble on my mind
When you see me laughin' I'm laughin' just to keep from cryin'

Trouble in mind I am blue and my poor heart's beatin' slow
I've never seen such trouble in my life before
Trouble in mind
