I Smell Trouble

Lord knows

I've tried

To do what's right

One whole year of staying home

Both day and night'

Cause I smell a mean trouble

Way over yonder you know

I heard a mean, yeah

Always in trouble people

Lord they just won't let me be

The people talk about me

Both night and day

I said, Lord please forgive them

And go the other way'

Cause I smell a mean trouble

Lord I smell trouble ahead of me, oh yeah

Yes, we're always in trouble

Lord, they just won't let me be

And from now on

I will not run and hide

I'll face trouble with a smile

And hope it pass me by'

Cause I smell a mean trouble

Way over yonder,

I say I heard a mean

Yes, we're always in trouble

They just won't, they just won't

Lord, they just won't let me be, oh yeah
