Lucinda Williams - So Much Trouble In The World Lyrics

Lucinda Williams Lyrics

"So Much Trouble In The World"
(feat. Mavis Staples)

So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world

Bless my eyes this morning
Jah sun is on the rise once again
The way earthly things are going
Anything can happen

You see men sailing on their ego trips
Blast off on their spaceships
Million miles from reality
No care for you, no care for me

So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
All you got to do is give a little, give a little, give a little
Yeah
Oh, oh
Give a little, give a little, give a little, give a little
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world

Now they're sitting on a time bomb
Now I know the time has come
What goes on up is coming on down
Goes around and comes around

So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world, mm
So much trouble in the world

We the street people talkin'
We the people strugglin'
With so much trouble
We the street people talkin'

We got
We got
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble in the world
So much trouble, trouble in the world
