Troubled in mind, I'm little blue
But you I won't be blue always
'Cause that ol' sun's gonna shine
on my back door step 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
Lo0rd they put you six feet under
Shovellin' mud directly in your face
Will, 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 doorstep
Some lowdown, lonesome, mother humpin' day
But you I won't be blue always
'Cause that ol' sun's gonna shine
on my back door step 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
Lo0rd they put you six feet under
Shovellin' mud directly in your face
Will, 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 doorstep
Some lowdown, lonesome, mother humpin' day
