Lyrics I Smell Trouble - Bobby Bland

Lord knows I try
To do what's right
One whole long year I stayed home
Both day and night

'Cause I smell a, hmm, trouble
Way over yonder, way up there ahead of me
Yes, worries and troubles
Lord, they just won't let me be

People talk about me
Both night and day
I said, "Lord, please forgive them"
And go the other way

'Cause I smell a, hmm, trouble
Lord, I smell trouble ahead of me
Yes, worries and troubles
Lord, they just won't let me be

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

'Cause I smell a, hmm trouble
Way over yonder, way up there ahead of me
Yes, worries and troubles
They just won't, they just won't, they just won't let me be

Oh yeah
