Lord knows I try |
|
To do what's right |
|
One whole long year I stayed home |
|
Both day and night |
|
'Cause I smell a, hmm, trouble |
|
Way over yonder, way up there ahead of me |
|
Yes, worries and troubles |
|
Lord, they just won't let me be |
|
People talk about me |
|
Both night and day |
|
I said, "Lord, please forgive them" |
|
And go the other way |
|
'Cause I smell a, hmm, trouble |
|
Lord, I smell trouble ahead of me |
|
Yes, worries and troubles |
|
Lord, they just won't let me be |
|
And from now on |
|
I will not run and hide |
|
I'll face trouble with smile |
|
And hope it pass me by |
|
'Cause I smell a, hmm trouble |
|
Way over yonder, way up there ahead of me |
|
Yes, worries and troubles |
|
They just won't, they just won't, they just won't let me be |
|
Oh yeah |
