Trouble No More, John Mellencamp's eighteenth full-length album, and final effort for Columbia Records, consists of blues and folk covers.

A re-working of "To Washington" featuring new lyrics critical of President George W. Bush and the Iraq War, generated a lot of controversy upon the album's release.[citation needed]
