I Smell Trouble

Lord, knows I've tried

To do what's right

One whole year of stayin' 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 beThe 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, always in trouble

Lord, they just won't let me beAnd 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, always in troubleThey just won't

They just won't

Lord, they just won't

Let me beHoo, oh yeah
