Troubled Waters - Helen Merrill

I’m gonna drown

Down in those troubled waters

They’re creepin' round my soul

They’re way beyond control

And they’ll wash my sins away before the mornin'

They say that I am one of the devil’s daughters

They look at me with scorn

I’ll never hear that one

I’ll be underneath the water judgment mornin'

Oh Lord, am I to blame?

Must I hang my head in shame?

What people go round scandalisin' my name?

I’m gonna drown

Down in those troubled waters

They’re creepin' round my soul

They’re way beyond control

And they’ll wash my sins away before the morn'

Troubled waters
