Troubled Waters - Helen Merrill Lyrics by:Sam Coslow Composed by:Sam Coslow 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
