Gentle on My Mind - Dean Martin[00:00:00]
Written by:J. Hartford[00:00:01]
It's knowing that your door is always open and your path is free to walk[00:00:05]
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag[00:00:15]
Rolled up and stashed behind your couch[00:00:18]
And it's knowing I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds[00:00:25]
And the ink stains that have dried up on some line[00:00:30]
That keeps you in the back roads by the rivers of my memory[00:00:37]
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind[00:00:42]
It's not clinging to the rocks[00:00:49]
And ivy planted on their columns now that binds me[00:00:51]
Or something that somebody said because they thought we fit together walking[00:01:00]
It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing or forgiving[00:01:09]
When I walk along some railroad track and find[00:01:14]
Moving on the back road by the rivers of my memory[00:01:22]
And for hours you're just gentle on my mind[00:01:27]
Well I dip my cup of soup back from the gurgling crackling[00:01:34]
Cauldron in some train yard[00:01:38]
My beard a roughening coal pile[00:01:44]
And a dirty hat pulled low across my face[00:01:46]
Cupped hands 'round a tin can[00:01:54]
I pretend I hold you to my breast and find[00:01:56]
That you're waving from the back roads by the river of my memory[00:02:04]
Ever smiling ever gentle on my mind[00:02:09]
