Troubles of My Own
Navigating Life's Troubles: Fats Domino's Resilient Message
Lyrics
Nobody knows my trouble
Nobody is aware of the difficulties I face.
Nobody seems to care
No one appears to be concerned about my struggles.
Bad luck and trouble
I constantly experience bad luck and challenges.
Follow me everywhere
Issues and misfortune follow me wherever I go.
Well I went to the fortune-teller
I consulted a fortune-teller to gain insights into my future.
And I had my fortune told
The fortune-teller predicted my future.
She said "son don't worry,
She advised me not to worry, assuring that things will improve with age.
Days will change when you grow old"
Reassurance that as I grow old, circumstances will change.
Well I held my head up high
I maintained a positive attitude but couldn't hold back tears.
And I started, started to cry
The emotional impact led to tears.
I'm not gonna worry
Expressing a determination not to worry.
Days will change by and by
Belief that over time, positive changes will occur.
Well I went to the fortune-teller
A repetition of seeking guidance from the fortune-teller.
And I had my fortune told
Receiving a similar message of not worrying about the future.
She said "son don't worry,
Reiteration of the fortune-teller's advice.
Days will change when you grow old"
Emphasizing that change will come with the passage of time.
Well you can see my dear old mother
Referencing family members—mother, father, sister, and brother.
My father, sister and brother
Encouraging them not to worry about the troubles.
Tell them don't worry
Delivering a message to dear ones about overcoming troubles.
I'm through with all my trouble
Declaring the end of personal struggles and challenges.
