Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat

And coverin' the crossroads I'm standing at

Maybe it's the weather or something like that

But mama you just on my mind

I don't mean trouble please don't put me down don't get upset

I am not pleadin' or sayin' I can't forget you

I do not walk the floor bowed down an' bent but yet

Mama you just on my mind

Even though my mind is hazy an' my thoughts they might be narrow

Where you been don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow

It don't even matter where you're wakin' up tomorrow

Mama you just on my mind

23333333333

I am not askin' you to say words like yes or no

Please understand me I've no place I'm calling you t' go

I'm just whisperin' to myself so I can't pretend that I don't know

Mama you are 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
