Harry Burleigh - Nobody Knows the Trouble I’ve Seen lyrics
Artist: Harry Burleigh
album: Black Swans: The First Recordings of Black Classical Music Performers
Chorus:
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen;
Nobody knows my sorrow.
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen;
Glory, Hallelujah!
(Repeat chorus)
Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down;
Oh, yes, Lord.
Sometimes I'm almost to the groun',
Oh, yes, Lord.
(Chorus)
I wish that I could find a way;
Oh, yes, Lord,
But life is just one long, rainy day;
Oh, yes, Lord.
(Chorus)
Glory, Hallelujah!
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen;
Nobody knows my sorrow.
Nobody knows the trouble I've seen;
Glory, Hallelujah!
(Repeat chorus)
Sometimes I'm up, sometimes I'm down;
Oh, yes, Lord.
Sometimes I'm almost to the groun',
Oh, yes, Lord.
(Chorus)
I wish that I could find a way;
Oh, yes, Lord,
But life is just one long, rainy day;
Oh, yes, Lord.
(Chorus)
Glory, Hallelujah!
