Troubled Waters

Sam Coslow, Arthur Johnston

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
I'm gonna drown down in those troubled waters
They're creeping 'round my soul
They're way beyond control
And they'll wash my sins away before the morning
They say that I'm one of the devil's daughters
They look at me with scorn
I'll never hear that horn
I'll be underneath the water judgement morning

[Bridge]
Oh Lord, am I to blame?
Must I hang my head in shame
If people go 'round scandalizing my name?

[Verse 2]
I'm gonna drown down in those troubled waters
They're creeping 'round my soul
They're way bеyond control
And they'll wash my sins away before thе morning

[Instrumental]
