"I Smell Trouble" lyrics - ROOMFUL OF BLUES

Lord knows I've tried
To do what's right
You know, five long years I stayed home
Both day and night

I smell trouble
Over yonder ahead of me
My worries and troubles
They just won't, just won't let me be let me be

People talkin' about me
You know, they're talking about me night and day
I said, "Lord please forgive them all
Lord, look the other way"

I smell trouble
Over yonder ahead of me
My worries and troubles
They just won't, just won't let me be

Well, from now on
I will not run and hide
I'll face trouble with a smile
And hope it pass me by

I smell, I smell, I smell trouble
Over yonder ahead of me
My worries and troubles
They just won't, they just won't let me be
They just won't let me be, oh yeah
