Oh, trouble in mind
All down and out, Thomas, tell us
Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be blue always
'Cause the sun's gonna shine
In my back door someday
Rayvon, brother Rayvon
I'm gonna lay my head
On some lonesome railroad line (and then what?)
Let that 2:19 train
Passes by my mind (oh yeah)
Look out, Jesse
♪
Trouble in mind, I'm blue
I have almost lost my mind
Sometimes I feel like livin'
Sometimes I feel like dyin'
Rayvon, brother, I'm right with you now
I'm going down to the river
I'm gonna take me a rockin' chair
And if the blues don't leave me
Rock on away from here
Let's hear you out, Stricklin
♪
Trouble in mind, I'm blue
My ole heart is beatin' slow
I never had so much trouble in my life before
My good gal, she done quit me
And it sure do grieve my mind
When you see me laughing
Laughing to keep from cryin'
