Mind Reader Blues

Baby I
can see
just what's on your mind
Baby I
can see
just what's on your mind
You got a long black woman with her gold teeth in her face

I take a long
look
right smack down in your mind
I take a long
look
right smack down in your mind
And I don't see but one woman rambling up and down the line

Don't kid
your mama
you ain't fooling nobody but your self
Oh don't kid
your mama
you ain't fooling nobody but yourself
And what I see on your mind you would not have no friend

I remem-
ber the day
when I was living at Lula town
I remem-
ber the day
when I was living at Lula town
My man did so many wrong things that I had to leave the town

I caught the ri-
verside
my man caught the transfer boat
I caught the ri-
verside
my man caught the transfer boat
And the last time I seed him he had a gal way up the road

Well I'm wo-
rried now
and I won't be worried long
Well I'm wo-
rried now
and I won't be worried long
Well I'm worried now and I won't be worried long
