Time in Mind Lyrics

It wasn't you, the angel on my mind
In the end I wasn't sad to leave behind
I did a lot of bad things, got busted, now I'm fine
Now I've got to suck it up and do the time in mind

I was out carousing for oh so many nights
Dipping here and dipping there I give myself a fright
Most everybody near me, they got sold a line (?)
Now I've got to suck it up and do the time in mind

[Refrain]
Time in mind
Should be an easy thing to do
Time in mind
Your not in a cell, there ain't no screws
But you'll find
Your conscience giving in to you
It goes do do-do do-do do do do the time in mind
Do do-do do-do do do do the time in mind

My uncles they told me, the right thing to do
I knew they told the truth but still I carried right on through
Till I broke their hearts
Hers and hers and mine
Now I've got to suck it up and do the time in mind

[Refrain]

One of these broken-hearted women, said to me one day
I wish there was a court for love they'd surely make you pay
I said I'm so sorry darling, there's no court of that kind
But you should know I've been a prisoner doing the time in mind

[Refrain]
