You Were On My Mind

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

When I got up this morning

You were on my mind

You were on my mind

I got some aches and

I got some pains and

I got some wounds to bind

So I went to the corner

Just to ease my pain

Just to ease my pain

I got drunk and

I got sick and

I came home again

Well I woke up this morning

You were on my mind

And you were on my mind

I got troubles

I got worries

I got wounds to bind

I got a feeling down in my shoes

Way down in my shoes

I got to move on

I got to travel

I got to walk away my blues

When I got up this morning

You were on my mind

You were on my mind

I got some aches and

I got some pains and

I got some wounds to bind
