—Jimmy Martin
Honey you don't know my mind I'm lonesome all the time
You're born to lose a drifter, and that's me
You can travel for so long, then a rambler's heart goes wrong
Baby you don't know my mind today
I've heard the music of the rail, slept in every old dirty jail
And life's too short for you to worry me
When I find I can't win I'll be checking out again
Baby you don't know my mind today
Honey you don't know my mind I'm lonesome all the time
And life's too short for you to worry me
You say I'm sweet and kind, well I can love you a thousand times
Baby you don't know my mind today
Honey you don't know my mind I'm lonesome all the time
I've traveled fast on this hard road you see
I ain't here to judge or plea but to give my poor heart ease
Baby you don't know my mind today
I've been a hobo and a tramp my soul has done been stamped
The things I know I've learnt the hard, hard way
When I find that I can't win I'll be checking out again
Baby you don't know my mind today
Honey you don't know my mind I was born the restless kind
You made it tough let's keep it that way
You're gonna find you were wrong when your lovin' daddy's gone
Baby you don't know my mind today
