Honey you don’t know my mind I’m lonesome all the time
Now you’re born to lose a drifter that’s me
You can travel for so long till a rambler’s heart goes wrong
Baby you don’t know my mind today
I’ve been a hobo and a tramp my soul has done been stamped
Thank God though I’ve learned the hard hard way
When I find I can’t win I’ll be checking out again
Baby you don’t know my mind today
Heard the music of the rail slept in every old dirty jail
And life’s too short for you to worry me
You say I’m sweet and kind I can love a thousand times
Baby you don’t know my mind today
Honey you don’t know my mind I was born the restless kind
You made it rough let’s keep it that way
You’re gonna find you were wrong when your loving daddy’s gone
Baby you don’t know my mind today
You’re gonna find you were wrong when your loving daddy’s gone
Baby you don’t know my mind today
