Trouble in Mind Lyrics


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 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
Lord, they put you six feet under
Shovellin' mud directly in your face
Well, 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 door step
Some lowdown, lonesome, mother humpin' day

Sam Hopkins was born on March 15, 1912 in Centerville, Texas. In 1920, at the age of eight, Hopkins met and played with the legendary Blind Lemon Jefferson, even becoming Jefferson's guide for a short time. Hopkins' cousin, the great bluesman, Texas Alexander, was another influence. Their musical partnership was broken up by Hopkins' time in Houston's County Prison Farm during the 1930s. When Hopkins made his way to Houston's Third Ward in 1946 he was introduced to Lola Anne Cullum, a talent scout who had pieced together deals with companies such as Aladdin Records out of Los Angeles.
