Lyrics Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash

While I've Got It On My Mind

Layin' 'round home with a ball game on

Feelin' fairly fine

Blackberry jam is cookin' in the pan

And the jam and the cook are mine

I like my honey from the hives of home

And berries from my old vine

And I like to get my lovin'

While I got it on my mind

My dog is asleep at my bare feet

It's a good day for layin' around

Just her and me and it's Saturday

Everybody's gone to town

We've been workin' hard and she gets tired

That puts me in a bind

'Coz I like to get my lovin'

While I got it on my mind

Then she looks at me and I can see

That old familiar look

And the jam is sweet as she lowers the heat

To give it time to cook

Then I lock the door and across the floor

To my queen of woman kind

Yeah, I like to get my lovin'

While I got it on my mind

Now boys don't you be ramble and free

And leavin' the girls to cry

'Coz the nights get cold and there ain't no gold

That'll ever satisfy

And there ain't no joy that'll come to you boys

Like the kind I've known at times

When I go right on in that lover

While I got in on my mind

Yeah, I like to get my lovin'

While I got in on my mind
