Gentle On My Mind - Billy White[00:00:00]

Written by：John Hartford[00:00:01]

It's knowin' that your door is always open[00:00:08]

And your path's free to walk[00:00:11]

That makes me tend to leave my sleepin' bag[00:00:17]

Rolled up and stashed behind your couch[00:00:20]

It's knowin' I'm not shackled by forgotten words or bonds[00:00:26]

And the ink stains that have dried upon some lines[00:00:30]

That keeps you on the backroads[00:00:36]

By the rivers of my memories[00:00:38]

That keeps you ever gentle on my mind[00:00:40]

It's not clingin' to the rocks and ivy[00:00:47]

Planted on the columns now that binds me[00:00:49]

Or somethin' that somebody said[00:00:55]

Because that thought we fit together walkin'[00:00:58]

It's just knowin' that the world will not be cursin' or forgivin'[00:01:03]

When I walk along some railroad track and find[00:01:08]

It's you wavin' from the backroads by the rivers of my memory[00:01:14]

And for hours you're just gentle on my mind[00:01:19]

Though wheat fields and the clotheslines[00:01:25]

And the junkyards and the highways come between us[00:01:27]

And some other woman cryin' to her mother[00:01:34]

'Cause she turned and I was gone[00:01:37]

I still might run in silence[00:01:42]

Tears of joy might stain my face[00:01:45]

And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind[00:01:47]

But not to where[00:01:53]

I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads[00:01:54]

By the rivers flowin' gentle on my mind[00:01:58]

I'd dip my cup of soup back from them gurglin'[00:02:04]

Cracklin' cauldron in some trainyard[00:02:07]

My beard roughenin' coal pile[00:02:12]

Dirty hat pulled low 'cross my face[00:02:15]

Through cupped hands and a round tin can[00:02:21]

I pretend to hold you to my breast and find[00:02:23]

That you're wavin' from the backroads[00:02:29]

By the rivers of my memory[00:02:31]

Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind[00:02:34]
