You Don't Know My Mind

Walkin' down the levee
With my head hangin' low
Lookin' for my mama
And she ain’t here no more
Baby you don’t know,
You don’t know my mind
When you see me laughin',
I’m laughin' just to keep from cryin'
She won’t cook my Dinner
Won’t wash my clothes
Won’t do nothing but
Wolk the road
Baby you don’t know,
You don’t know my mind
When you see me laughin',
I’m laughin' just to keep from cryin'
My breakfast’s on the table
and my coffee gettin' cold
My mama’s in the kitchen
Gettin' a-sweet papa told
Baby you don’t know,
You don’t know my mind
When you see me laughin',
I’m laughin' just to keep from cryin'
Sometimes I think my baby’s
Too good to die
Sometimes I think
She should be buried alive
Baby you don’t know,
You don’t know my mind
When you see me laughin',
I’m laughin' just to keep from cryin'
I wish I had a nickle,
I wish I had a dime
I wish havn’t give myself
to bad womans time
Baby you don’t know,
You don’t know my mind
When you see me laughin',
I’m laughin' just to keep from cryin'
Look at you Mama,
See what you gonna done
You got my money now
You broke and run
Baby you don’t know,
You don’t know my mind
When you see me laughin',
Laughin' just to keep from cryin'
You maybe get mad
And you maybe get sad
Going gets?
Than you have ever had
Baby you don’t know,
You don’t know my mind
When you see me laughin',
I’m laughin' just to keep from cryin'
When you see me laughin',
I’m laughin' just to keep from cryin'
