A Broken Heart That Never Smiles

When you down and in trouble
Tell your trouble to the lord above
When you down and in trouble
Tell your trouble to the lord above
'Cause you never will be happy
Until you find the one you love

Like a prisoner without a plea
And sentenced without a trial
Like a prisoner without a plea
And sentenced without a trial
Like a beating heart longing for love
A heart that never smiles

You can stay in a town so long
You can feel yourself sinkin' down
You can stay in a town so long
You can feel yourself sinkin' down
Best to change your way of livin'
And you must change your town

This mornin'
I sure have got the blues
This mornin'
I sure have got the blues
I've got a real good mama
To tell my trouble to
