Trouble in mind, Lord I'm blue

But I won't be blue always

The sun is gonna shine in my door, shine in my back door someday

I'm gonna lay, lay my head

On that lonesome railroad line

And let the 2:19 train ease my troubled mind

Trouble in mind, well Lord I'm blue now

I won't be blue always

The sun is gonna shine in my door, shine in my back door someday

I'm going down, goin' down to the river

I'm going to bring some wine that I can share

And if these blues don't leave me,

Lord, I'll have to ride away from here

Trouble in mind, trouble in mind I'm blue now

But I won't be blue always

And that sun's gonna shine in my, lord, shine in my back door someday

I'm all alone - I'm alone at midnight

And the lamp is burning low

I've never had so much trouble in my whole life ever before

Trouble in mind, Lord I'm blue now

But I won't be blue always

And that wind's gonna come - it's gonna blow my blues away...
