Mama You Been on My Mind

(Bob Dylan)

Perhaps itжЉЇ the color of the sun cut flat

and coverin' the crossroads IжЉ¦ standing at

or maybe itжЉЇ the weather or something like that

but mama you been on my mind

I do not mean you trouble, donжЉ° put me down, donжЉ° get upset

I am not pleadin?or sayin?I canжЉ° forget you

I do not pace the floor, bowed down and bent, but yet

mama you been on my mind

Even tho?my eyes are hazy

and my thoughts they might be narrow

where you been donжЉ° bother me, or bring me down with sorrow

I donжЉ° even mind where you be wakin?up tomorrow

but mama you been on my mind

IжЉ¦ not asking you to say words like yes or no

Please understand me, IжЉіe no place IжЉ¦ calling you to go

IжЉ¦ just whisperin?to myself so I can pretend that I donжЉ° know

Mama you been on my mind

When you wake up in the mornin?baby, look inside your mirror

you know I wonжЉ° be next to you, you know I wonжЉ° be near

IжЉЋ just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear

as someone who has had you on his mind

As someone who has had you on his mind

Mama you been on my mind
