Cat Power - Troubled Waters Lyrics

Cat Power – Troubled Waters Lyrics (originally by Duke Ellington)

I must be
One of the devil’s daughters
They look at me with scorn
I’ll never hear their horn

Sometimes
It’s like chains
Sometimes I hang my head
In shame
When people see me
They scandalize my name

I’m going down
To the devil’s water
I’m gonna drown
In that troubled water
It’s coming ’round my soul
It’s way beyond control
I must be one
I must be one

I must be
One of the devil’s daughters
They look at me with scorn
I’ll never hear their horn

Sometimes
It’s like chains
Sometimes I hang my head
In shame
When people see me
They scandalize my name

I’m going down
To the devil’s water
I’m gonna drown
In that troubled water
It’s coming ’round my soul
It’s way beyond control
I must be one
I must be one
I must be
