Subject: Lyr Add: YOU WERE ON MY MIND (Sylvia Fricker)
I see that these lyrics aren't in the database. gives me a good excuse to post them, hoping that I haven't already posted them in the forum:

YOU WERE ON MY MIND
-Sylvia Fricker, 1964
(as recorded by Ian & Sylvia)

Woke up this morning, you were on my mind
And you were on my mind
Got some aches and got some pains and
Got some wounds to bind

Went to the corner, just to ease my pain
It was just to ease my pain
I got drunk and I got sick and
I came home again.

I got a feelin' down in my shoes
It's a way down in my shoes
Got to move on, got to travel
Walk away my blues.

When I woke up this morning, you were on my mind
And you were on my mind
I got troubles, oh
I got worries, oh
I got wounds to bind

So I went to the corner, just to ease my pain
Just to ease my pain
I got troubles, oh
I got worries, oh
I came home again.

But I woke up this morning, you were on my mind
And you were on my mind
I got troubles, oh
I got worries, oh
I got wounds to bind

And I got a feelin' down in my shoes
I said, way down in my shoes
I got to ramble, I got to move on*
I gotta walk away my blues.

So I woke up this morning, you were on my mind
And you were on my mind
I got troubles, oh
I got worries, oh
I got wounds to bind

*this line is very hard to understand - it could be anything.
