Trouble in mind, i'm blue But i won't be blue always, 'cause the sun's gonna shine In my backdoor some day. I'm all alone at midnight And my lamp is burnin' low Ain't never had so much Trouble in my life before. Trouble in mind, that's true I have almost lost my mind, Life ain't worth livin, Sometimes i feel like dyin'. Goin' down to the river Gonna take my ol' rockin' chair And if the blues don't leave me I'll rock away from there.
"Trouble in Mind" is a vaudeville blues-style song written by jazz pianist Richard M. Jones. Singer Thelma La Vizzo and Jones (piano) first recorded it in 1924. The lyrics have changed over the years, but the original lyrics did include the verses: « I'm gonna lay my head On the lonesome railroad line Let the 2:19 Satisfy my mind”. » In the comments column of this video, “@mpucek’l998” has posted lyrics which correspond to a different, less somber version of the song. What Nina Simone actually sings is closer to the original lyrics of Jones. We owe to “musixmatch" a verbatim transcript (slightly modified from cross-checking) of what Nina Simone actually sings in this video, as follows : -------- [Piano intro] ¡Hey! One more Bam, bah Go boys [Refrain] Trouble in mind, I'm blue But I won't be blue always 'Cause the sun's gonna shine In my backdoor some day [Verse.1] Trouble in mind, it's true I have almost lost my mind Never had so much trouble in my life before [Verse.2] I'm gonna lay my head On some lonesome railroad line Let the two-nineteen train Ease my troubled mind [Refrain] Trouble in mind, I'm blue But I won't be blue always 'Cause the sun's gonna shine In my backdoor someday [Verse.2 repeated] I'm gonna lay Lay my head On some lonesome railroad line Let the two-nineteen train Ease my troubled mind [Piano solo] [Refrain] See trouble in mind, I'm blue But I won't be blue always 'Cause the sun's gonna shine In my backdoor someday [Verse.2 repeated] I'm gonna lay Oh, my head On some lonesome railroad line Let the two-nineteen train Ease my troubled mind [Refrain] Trouble in mind, yes, I'm blue But I won't be blue always 'Cause the sun's gonna shine In my backdoor someday [last two lines of Refrain] [(four times repeated)] 'Cause the sun's gonna shine In my backdoor someday 'Cause the sun's gonna shine In my backdoor someday 'Cause the sun's gonna shine In my backdoor someday, oh, boy 'Cause the sun's gonna shine In my backdoor someday Bam, bam, bah Yeah!

I am a 70 year old Australian & remember this from my teens, my late Mum also loved it. I am so happy I have found this track again!
Trouble in mind, i'm blue
But i won't be blue always,
'cause the sun's gonna shine
In my backdoor some day.
I'm all alone at midnight
And my lamp is burnin' low
Ain't never had so much
Trouble in my life before.
Trouble in mind, that's true
I have almost lost my mind,
Life ain't worth livin,
Sometimes i feel like dyin'.
Goin' down to the river
Gonna take my ol' rockin' chair
And if the blues don't leave me
I'll rock away from there.
Thank you.
She’s an amazing creature, full of truth and courage… love you Nina 🌷
