I Smell Trouble

Lord knows I've tried

To do what's right

Five long years I've stayed home

Both day and night

I gotta a long trouble

Over yonder

Way up there I heard a mean

Always in trouble

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

I smell a long trouble

Way over yonder way up there a mean

Whoooh

Always in trouble

Lord, they just won't let me be

Won't let me be

But from now on

I will not run and hide

Gonna face trouble with a smile

And hope it pass me by

I gotta long trouble

Way over yonder way up there a mean

Whoh, always in trouble

Lord, they just won't let me be

Ah, Lord, they won't let me be

Oh, from now on

I will not run and hide

Gonna face trouble with a smile

And hope it pass me by

I gotta long trouble

Way over yonder way up there a mean

Whoh, always in trouble

They just won't

They just won't

They just won't

They just won't let me be

Oooh, yea-a-a-a
