Old man trouble

Trouble on the water, trouble on the land
Old man trouble makes his home
Where he can find a troubled man

Trouble, oh trouble
Trouble on my trail
That son of a gun's got me on the run
Old man trouble on my trail

Midnight at the crossroads
Standing by the highway side
Headlights zooming in from the distance
I'm trying to flag a ride
Gotta make it back to the Delta
The place where the blues was born
But nobody wants to take a troubled man
On his lonely journey home

Trouble, oh trouble

It's the darkest night I've ever seen
Someone tall must have turned off the light
Trouble's my only companion
Feel like hangin' down my head and cry
I thought I heard Blind Willie Johnson sing
What is the soul of a man
Get down on your bended knees my brother
One day you will understand

Trouble, oh trouble

Trouble on the water, trouble on the land
Old man trouble makes his home
Where he can find a troubled man
