Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat
An' cov'rin' the crossroads I'm standing at,
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that,
But mama, you been on my mind.

I am not askin' you to say words like "yes" or "no,"
Please understand me, 
I got no place for you t' go.
I'm just breathin' to myself, 
pretendin' not that I don't know,
Mama, you been on my mind.

When you wake up in the mornin', 
baby, look inside your mirror. 
na na na...ra ra..................,
mama, you're just on my mind.

na..na ..na....ra..ra...............,
......the crossroads I'm standing at,
na..na..na.....ra...ra..............,
Mama, you're just on my mind.
Mama, you're just on my mind.
