Jesse Welles Lyrics
Perhaps it is the color of the sun cut flat
And coverin' the crossroads I'm standing at
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
oh but mama you've been on my mind
I don't mean trouble please don't put me down don't get upset
I am not pleading or saying that I can't forget you
I do not pace the floor bowed down and bent but yet
Oh mama you've been on my mind
Even though my eyes are hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow
Where you've been don't bother me or bring me down with sorrow
I don't even mind who you'll be waking with tomorrow
But mama you've been on my mind
I am not askin' you to say words like yes or no
Please understand me I have no place I'm callin' you to go
I'm just whispering to myself so I can pretend that I don't know
Oh mama you've been on my mind
When you wake up in the mornin' baby look inside your mirror
You know I won't be next to you you know I won't be near
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
As someone who has had you on his mind
