Mama, You Been on My Mind Lyrics

Well when you wake up in the mornin' baby look inside your mirror I won't be next to you
You know I won't be near
I'd be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
As someone who's had you on his mind Mama you've been on my mind

Well perhaps it's the wind and the dark dark night that's coverin'
The crossroads that I'm at
And maybe it's the weather-r-r somethin' like that
But Mama you've been on my mind

Well I don't need trouble please don't put me down I am not pleading
Or sayin' I cannot forget
I do not pace the floor bowed down and bent but yet
Mama you've been on my mind

Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts they might narrow where you been don't bother me
Or bring me down with sorrow
It don't matter to me where you're wakin' up tomorrow
But Mama you've been on my mind

When you wake up in the mornin' baby look inside your mirror I won't be next to you
You know I won't be near
I'd be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
As someone who's had you on his mind
