I take my troubles to the river
Where I wash my hands and let the water flow
I take my troubles to the river
Where I wash my hands and let the water flow
I take my troubles to the river
I take my troubles to the river
I take my troubles to the river
Where I wash my hands and let the water flow
I put my troubles in the river
Let the current take all my troubles away
I put my troubles in the river
Let the current take all my troubles away
I put my troubles in the river
I put my troubles in the river
I put my troubles in the river
Let the current take all my troubles away
River takes my troubles to the ocean
Let the waves wash all my troubloes away
River takes my troubles to the ocean
Let the waves wash all my troubloes away
River takes my troubles to the ocean
River takes my troubles to the ocean
River takes my troubles to the ocean
Let the waves wash all my troubles away
Let the waves wash my troubles, my troubles away
Ocean sinks those troubles to bottom
To the depths and the darkness where my troubles drown
Ocean sinks those troubles to bottom
To the depths and the darkness where my troubles drown
Ocean sinks those troubles to the bottom
Ocean sinks those troubles to the bottom
Troubles
Ain't no place to hide from
Troubles
You can't run away from
Troubles
They've got a way to find you
Troubles
They're always right behind you
Troubles
Ain't no place to hide from
Troubles
You can't run away from
Troubles
They've got a way to find you
Troubles
They're always right behind you
Storm rages, brings those troubles from the bottom
Lifting all those troubles up into the sky
Storm rages, brings those troubles from the bottom
Lifting all those troubles up into the sky
Storm rages, brings those troubles from the bottom
Storm rages, brings those troubles from the bottom
Storm rages, brings those troubles from the bottom
Lifting all those troubles up into the sky
Dark clouds, there's a storm on the horizon
Gonna rain those troubles back down on me
Dark clouds, there's a storm on the horizon
Gonna rain those troubles back down on me
Dark clouds, there's a storm on the horizon
Dark clouds, there's a storm on the horizon
Troubles
Ain't no place to hide from
Troubles
You can't run away from
Troubles
They've got a way to find you
Troubles
They're always right behind you
Troubles
Ain't no place to hide from
Troubles
You can't run away from
Troubles
They've got a way to find you
Troubles
They're always right behind you
I take my troubles down
Down to the river
I take my troubles to the river
Where I wash my hands and let the water flow
I take my troubles to the river
Where I wash my hands and let the water flow
I take my troubles to the river
I take my troubles to the river
I take my troubles to the river
Where I wash my hands and let the water flow........

“Nice tune. Lyrically so true; trouble has a way to find you.”
********
“ I like the power of the vocal chorus, that killer percussion, that nice guitar work and that ominous piano.”
********
“....Saxophone adds a nice touch and the guitar parts are perfect.”
********
"The lyrics say it all: “Ain't no place to hide from; You can't run away from; They've got a way to find you; They're always right behind you. Man don't I know it. Trouble's a bitch.”
********
"I think the song is deeper than the lyrics at first lead you to believe. I don't think the river is real. I think it's a metaphor for his mind. I think it's the way he works things out in his head. Maybe, maybe not; but if so, the song is even more interesting. Either way it's a good song.
