When you wake up in the morning baby look inside your mirrow

I won't be next to you you know I won't be near

I'd be curious to know if your reflection is as clear

As the one that I've got on my mind mama you been on my mind

[ harmonica ]

Well perhaps it's the wind and the dark dark night that's covering

The crossroads that I'm at

And maybe it's the weather somethin' like that

Byt mama you been on my mind mama you been on my mind

[ sax ]

Well I don't need trouble please don't put me down or get upset

I am not pleading I won't say I'll forget

And I won't pace a floor bout down and bent but yet

Mama you been on my mind mama you been on my mind

[ sax ]

Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts are kinda narrow

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

It don't matter to me where you'll be waking up tomorrow

Byt mama you been on my mind mama you been on my mind
