Lyrics Bobby "Blue" Bland

Bobby "Blue" Bland

I Smell Trouble

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
