I Smell Trouble

(album: The Hunter - 1969)

The Lord knows I've tried
To do what's right
For five whole long years I stayed home
Both day and night

And I smell trouble
Lord, I smell trouble ahead of me
Oh, worries and trouble
No they just won't let me be

People talk about me
I know they talk about me both night and day
But I said, Lord, please forgive them
And I go the other way

I smell trouble
Lord, I smell trouble ahead of me
Woah, worries and trouble
No they just won't let me be

And from now on
I will not run and hide
I'm gonna face trouble with a smile
And hope they pass me by

I smell trouble
Lord, I smell trouble way up there ahead of me
Oh, worries and trouble
Lord, they just won't, they just won't, they just won't, they just won't, they just won't
Let me be, oh, no
