Evil on Your Mind

(Harlan Howard)



You say I need the rest

Why don't I go and see my sister way out west

That's very thoughtful of you dear

I'm really touched by all this tenderness.



But us women are suspicious things

We know that men aren't born with wings

What's making you so kind

I'm not so smart but I'm not blind

I think that you've got evil on your mind.



You think that you've been good about as long

As muskart bloomed human could

We've been together for so long

I know another pasture's looking good.



Don't think that other men don't look at me

That certain way from time to time

Don't think that you're the only one

That must counted with evil on your mind.



Your mind is in the hare man

Surrounded by exotic dancing girls

You're hearing pretty music as they run

Their slender fingers through your curles

Ah dream on baby.



I thank you for the flowers

And the candy honey that was very kind

That's just your way of telling me

You're sorry for the evil on your mind.



You're just bad evil

Think of all these bad things you do...
