Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be blue always
'Cause the Sun's gonna shine
In my backdoor some day

Trouble in mind, I'm slow
My poor heart is beating so slow
I never had so much
Trouble in my life before

I'm going down to the river
Gonna get me a rocking chair
If the lord don't help me
I'm gonna rock away from here

Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be blue always
'Cause the Sun's gonna shine
In my backdoor some day

Trouble in mind, well, I'm blue, yeah
But I won't be blue always
'Cause the Sun's gonna shine
In my backdoor some day

Yeah, I'm going down to the river
Gonna get me a rocking chair
If the lord don't help me
I'm gonna rock away from here

Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be blue always
'Cause the Sun's gonna shine
In my backdoor someday

Yeah the Sun's gonna shine
My backdoor someday
Woah, the Sun's gonna shine
My backdoor someday
