Subject: Lyr Add: TROUBLE IN MIND (Bertha Chippie Hill)
A check to this transcription. Bertha Chippie Hill recorded more than one track of this blues. This is the one in the Yazoo CD I Can't Be Satisfied, vol.2. R

Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be always
The sun goin' shine
In my back door someday

I'm all alone at midnight
And the lamps are burnin' low
Never had so much trouble
In my life before

Troublin' love done quit me
And it sure do grieve my mind
Some days I feel like living
Sometimes I feel like dyin'

I'm gonna lay my head
On some lonesome railroad line
And let the 2:19 train
Satisfy my mind

Trouble in mind, I'm blue
But I won't be always
The sun goin' shine
In my back door someday
