lyrics

Down by where the fishing folk don't ever mess around
Down by where the riverbed takes you when you drown
Trouble knows my name

Over by the Treetop town where ladies go to cry
Over by the working men who all day try and try
Trouble knows my name

Trouble knows my name oh Lord trouble knows my name
And up until you bury me trouble gonna know my name

Underneath the cold dark mine were many do not dare
Underneath the willow tree child do beware
Trouble knows my name

Well all across the cotton fields singing in the sun
All across Appalachia ain't nowhere to run
Trouble knows my name

Trouble knows my name oh Lord trouble knows my name
And up until you bury me trouble gonna know my name

Up and down the road I run trying to get away
Took a turn was for the worst farther did I stray
Up into the cemetery where I finally lay
I looked upon the nearest stone and written was my name

I cried dear trouble now
Yes
I cried dear trouble now
I said please help me
Oh no
I said please help me
Oh no
Free me from this name

All across the cotton fields
Run child run
Down by the riverbed
Run child run
Under the coal mine
Up and down the Delta line

Cuz Trouble knows my name oh Lord trouble knows my name
And up until you bury me trouble gonna know my name

Trouble knows my name oh Lord trouble knows my name
And up until you bury me trouble gonna know my name
