Troubled in mind I'm little blue

Bet you I won't be blue always

'Cause that ol' sun's gonna shine

On Jerry Lee Lewis's back door step someday

I'm gonna lay my head

On 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

Troubled in mind I'm little blue

Bet you I won't be blue always

'Cause that ol' sun's gonna shine

On Jerry Lee Lewis's back door step someday

Troubled in mind I'm little blue

Bet you I won't be blue always

'Cause that ol' sun's gonna shine

On my back door step someday
