Troubled in mind, I'm blue But I won't be blue always You know the sun gonna shining My back door someday
I'm gonna lay my head On somebody's lonesome railroad line Let that ol' midnight special Ease my troubled mind Well, they tell me that old graveyard Is a mighty lonesome place Lord, they put you six feet under Shovellin' mud directly in your face Well, goodbye, baby, may God bless you And may He bless ol' Killer a little bit too Oh, don't meet you over yonder, baby When they throw that Jerry right over you Troubled in mind, when I'm little blue Bet you I won't be blue always 'Cause the sun's gonna shine On, on my back door step Some lowdown, lonesome, mother humpin' day
