And that's where I want to go
But I just can't rest on the mountaintop
Knowin' the trouble down here below
Whoa, trouble down here below
Well, I know how to make it to the top of the mountain
'Cause I've been there a time or so
But I cannot rest on the mountaintop
Knowin' the trouble down here below
Yeah, yeah, trouble down here below
I got a mother, father, sister, brothers
Cryin' down here in a world of trouble
Well, there ain't no trouble on the mountain
But there's trouble down here below
Yeah, yeah, trouble down here below
Now people drinkin' and gamblin', rovin' and ramblin'
Fightin' and shootin', yeah, they're a hatin' and disputin'
No Lord, there ain't no trouble on the mountain
But there's trouble down here below
Hey, yeah, trouble down here below
There's trouble down here, trouble down here
My brothers and sisters are cryin' in a world of trouble
I can't have no peace on the mountaintop
'Cause I'm a worried and I'm troubled
No Lord, there ain't no trouble on the mountain
But there's trouble down here below
Whoa, trouble down here below
'Cause there's trouble down here below
Well, I know there's peace on the mountain And that's where I want to go But I just can't rest on the mountaintop Knowin' the trouble down here below Whoa, trouble down here below Well, I know how to make it to the top of the mountain 'Cause I've been there a time or so But I cannot rest on the mountaintop Knowin' the trouble down here below Yeah, yeah, trouble down here below I got a mother, father, sister, brothers Cryin' down here in a world of trouble Well, there ain't no trouble on the mountain But there's trouble down here below Yeah, yeah, trouble down here below Now people drinkin' and gamblin', rovin' and ramblin' Fightin' and shootin', yeah, they're a hatin' and disputin' No Lord, there ain't no trouble on the mountain But there's trouble down here below Hey, yeah, trouble down here below There's trouble down here, trouble down here My brothers and sisters are cryin' in a world of trouble I can't have no peace on the mountaintop 'Cause I'm a worried and I'm troubled No Lord, there ain't no trouble on the mountain But there's trouble down here below Whoa, trouble down here below 'Cause there's trouble down here below Explain Request ×
