Lord knows I try, to do what's right One whole long year I stayed home both day and night 'Cause I smell-a, hmmm, 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, hmmm, 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 s smile, and hope it pass me by 'Cause I smell-a, hmmm, 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
