Alonzo "Lonnie" Johnson (February 8, 1899 – June 16, 1970) was an American blues and jazz singer/guitarist and songwriter who pioneered the role of jazz guitar and is recognized as the first to play single-string guitar solos. Johnson was not only one of the few black blues musicians invited to be 'guest featured' on a number of jazz recording sessions, he was also one of the only classic 1920's blues artists to have a revived a high-charting career after WWII. more »

Trouble in mind; I'm blue
But I won't be blue always
Because the sun's gonna shine
In my back door someday

I'm gonna lay my head
On some lonesome railroad line
And let that 2:19
Pass through my worried mind

Trouble in mind; I'm blue
And I've almost lost my mind
Sometimes I feel like livin'
Sometimes I feel like dyin'

I'm going down to the river
I'm going to buy me a rockin' chair
And if the blues don't leave me
I'm goin' to rock away from here

Trouble in mind; I'm blue
My ol' heart is a beating slow
I never had so much trouble
In my life before

My good gal, she's gone to Sydney
And it sure did grieve my mind
When you see me laughing
I'm just a trying to keep from cryin'.

Trouble in mind...
