[Chorus: Vera Hall]

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

[Verse 1: Vera Hall]

Went down the hill the other day

My soul got happy and stayed all day

Went down the hill the other day

My soul got happy and stayed all day

[Chorus: Vera Hall]

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

[Verse 2: Vera Hall]

Went in the room, didn't stay long

Looked on the bed and brother was dead

Went in the room, didn't stay long

Looked on the bed and brother was dead

[Chorus: Vera Hall]

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Oh lordy, trouble so hard

Don't nobody know my troubles but God

Don't nobody know my troubles but God
