Leon Russell - Trouble In Mind Lyrics






I'm gonna lay my head on some lonesome railroad line
And let that old 2-20 pacify mind
Yeah I'm goin' down to the river I'm gonna take me a rockin' chair
Yeah honey if these blues don't get me I'm gonna rock away from here
Well trouble in mind I'm blue but I won't be blue always
Before the sun's gonna shine in my backyard one of these days

Trouble in mind that's true I've almost almost lost my mind
Sometimes I feel like livin' sometimes I feel like dyin'
Well trouble in mind I'm blue...

    Godspeed, Leon Russell, one of a kind and will be sorely missed!

  16. J.... N....

    Nina Simone did a great solo version of this song. If you like this one, you'll like her cover.

  17. g.... s....

    Good stuff!

  18. W.... S....

    Mickey Raphael on the harp

    W.... S....

    Werner Streiff Mickey Raphael the BEST! Bonnie Raitt, Willie Nelson, Maria Muldaur and Leon Russell SUCKS!

  19. R.... R....

    one of the greatest blues song i ever heard!!!

  20. I.... k....

    who's that on the harp?

    I.... k....

    That's Mickey Raphael, LONG time harp player for Willie.

    I.... k....

    Thought so I just never heard his
    Name

  21. S.... B....

    He's the Grandmaster of them all...

  22. S.... B....

    UMMM yes they can.

  23. P.... R....

    Leon Russell...so beautiful, he even makes Elvis Presley look unattractive..........!

  24. J.... G....

    +Guerrilla gorilla soldier, sorry Ggs I do take offence, not because you are a racist (the world's got plenty of them) but because of the ignorance of statement like that offends every thinking in the world. I just read two of your statements so quit now before you embarrass again but then again that explains the picture next to your comments.

  25. J.... D....

    Good is good,if you can do it.

  26. R.... ....

    I LOVE all of them WOW

  27. G.... g....

    No offence but white people cant sing the blues.

    G.... g....

    Are you kidding me? Do you think white folks don't have the blues, too? And do you not think that Leon Russell and Willie Nelson can sing/interpret all the old blues (that admittedly started out with black folks)they are master musicians.

    G.... g....

    Let me introduce you to Jonny Lang...

    G.... g....

    hehehe~ you ain't hoyd enuff Leon then.....he's got mo' blues in his fingers than most other folks. Leon is Leon, he makes his own brand of Blues.

    G.... g....

    Well they can sure sing the shit out of whatever this music is...

    G.... g....

    Blues Rock 💔

  28. A.... S....

    Leon....your brilliant...love you....

  29. D.... D....

    this is OK, but the best version is Janis Joplin's from the typewriter tapes

  30. J.... R....

    Classic Leon and friends

  31. M.... D....

    Leon and Willie LP or CD as
     you like.

  32. r.... j....

    anyone know when this was recorded???

    r.... j....

    Close to 1973...Leon's Hank Wilson LP had come out, he did lots of duo stuff over the years w/ Willie & the boys.

    r.... j....

    This was recorded in 1979 and is on the One For The Road LP. . Leon's Hank Wilson LP was released in 1973.

  33. G.... G....

    Weeell I'm gooing dooooo-uuuúwn to tha rivá,

  34. J.... L....

    Most Excellent! Loved those days!!!

  35. R.... J....

    Is there anyone Leon HAS'NT played with?

    R.... J....

    @Richard Jean nope...and i saw him 20 times...at least. name a band, name an artist, and we saw them together in the 70s...

    R.... J....

    +Richard Jean Well, there's that Bieber person ...

    R.... J....

    @Dave Gordon LMBO!!!!!
     

    R.... J....

    M.... ....

    @MsSnoozy1 Then you gotta check out some recent concert footage- he's got some great stories. Or better yet go see him live- he's still great (he always will be).

    M.... ....

    Yes!  Thanks for posting!!!!!

  53. A.... ....

    This song was first recorded in 1924. That's not a typo - 1924. Give that a few moments of thought.

  54. A.... ....

    I've never seen this so thanks in ALL CAPS for posting it. My girlfriend (now wife of 36 years) and I used to go see these folks almost weekly in Texas, and quite a few times left before the sets were over because they went on for 3-4 hours (or more... we left after 3). Fun, fun time to live, so thanks again.

    A.... ....

    Thanks Amhlair, for putting it so well! We all really DID have FUN FUN FUN (in ALL CAPS) too! And gracias to the many fine musicians on this rendition...

    A.... ....

    +Amhlair Must have been a GREAT time wish I had been there too.

  55. s.... b....

    Why didn't music just stop right about there?

  56. d.... e....

    I wanna go back to then!

  57. G.... M....

    I had wondered if Leon and Willie ever got together, thanks for the post, HD Soul. And the Maria and Bonnie were outstanding. wish they'd kept it up for a few more minutes.

  58. K.... W....

    Oh THAT is GREAT!!!!!! Can't hardly stand it...what a session! One question...is that Mary Canary behind Leon towards the end of the song? I was at their wedding concert at the Fox in Atlanta when they first got married all those years ago...wondered if that was her in this video in the back..

  59. N.... U....

    My all-time favorite version of this song.

  60. D.... W....

    Love these people so much. Thank you for sharing.

  61. a.... g....

    Thank you. You are very kind. Enjoy the music ALWAYS.....There is SOOOOOO much at our fingertips!!!!!!!!

  62. a.... g....

    I understand your grief. It is almost unbearable. You were so kind. Keep the music in your heart and she will always stay there...These words sound so much like nothing
    compared to losing them...

    @gracewarren2 what about Willie?

  78. E.... S....

    @eddie054 It's great to hear you giving a new generation an appreciation of the Master! Way to go!

  79. s.... 1....

    @eddie054 Leon was also in Atlanta..Bob has lost it..Leon is all I listen to on my I-Pod..Carney is hands down the best CD in IMHO as I have probably in the last year replaced Vinyl with his CDs...I have fell in love with his version of Smoke gets in your eyes...He is the true Master of Space and Time...I do enjoy his CD with Elton some great songs...Leon Russell and Friends is great to watch on U-tube..He was and still has it going on.

  80. E.... L....

    My 16 yo son has a great appreciation for Leon ever since we saw him in concert opening for Bob Dylan. Thing is Leon still has it and poor Bob lost it. Had to rebuy my lost Carney (vinyl gone CD replace..and put on ipod.)

  81. j.... ....

    Leon rules.

  82. k.... ....

    Fantastic compliment to one another.... low down dirty ol' blues. "Look out" is right! Yessirree Bob! Lovin it!

  83. d.... ....
