MAVIS STAPLES & LEVON HELM
"Trouble In My Mind"

[Chorus:]
Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be blue always
'Cause the sun's gonna shine in my back door someday
I got that trouble in mind, that's true
I have almost lost my mind
Never had so much trouble in my life before

[Instrumental break]

I'm going down to the river, gonna take my ol' rockin' chair
And if the blues overtake me I'm gonna rock on away from here
I'm all alone at midnight
And my lamp is burning low
Ain't never had so much trouble in my life before

[Instrumental break]

I'm gonna lay, lay my head on some lonesome railroad line
Let the two-nineteen train ease my troubled mind

[Chorus:]
Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be blue always
I know the sun's gonna shine in my back door someday

[Instrumental break]

[Outro:]
Trouble in mind, yes, I'm blue
I have almost lost my mind
But the sun's gonna shine in my back door someday
'Cause the sun's gonna shine in my back door someday
Yes, the sun's gonna shine in my back door someday
Someday
