Trouble Ahead Songtext / Lyric

One, two, three, four



It's safe to say that there's trouble ahead.

Well, it's good to know that it's coming

It doesn't take much searchin', friend, to know that there's nothing

But a life of feeling like you're all alone in a mansion with wolves at the door

And no blue birds flying



And I can pray for you

Like you're all out of God

And I can keep on thinking things that are rosy enough

To go on forever with a smile and a thought

That if you're gonna go

We can just get on and ride off

For I know now that the train doesn't always stop for you when you want it to






And you can keep on singing

"My ship's comin' in"

Little darlin' 'til you're blue

And just like trains don't always stop

Your boat may never drop

And forever on the ocean you will ride

Never to dream of me



Don't ever dream of me



Maybe on some winter's day

I'll let you know I love you more than words can say

Then happily I'll go to the grave

With nothing that a little prayer to the Lord can't save

For I've been doing wrong

For so long



Goodbye, farewell

This is your song

I'm sorry this wasn't better hummed

But I've thrown away all of my good ones

Yes, I've thrown away all of my good ones



And you can keep on singing

"My ship's comin' in"

Little darlin' 'till you're blue

And just like trains don't always stop

Your boat may never drop

And forever on the ocean you will ride

Never to dream of me



Don't ever dream of me
