Text: Lyle Lovett. In My Own Mind.

I get up in the mornin', I drink a cup of coffee
I look out of the window, I try to get started
I turn it all over, I plough it all under
I plant 'em in the spring time, I pick 'em in the summer

I live in my own mind, ain't nothin' but a good time
No rain, just the sunshine, out here in my own mind
I live where I can breathe, ain't nothin' but a cool breeze
Nobody that it won't please, out here where you can breathe

Mandy and Dary, they'll show back up any day
That's one thing you can count on but sometimes they'll be long gone
I'd rather be huntin', hooked on fishin'
I read it on the T-shirts but if you don't believe it

I live in my own mind, ain't nothin' but a good time
No rain, just the sunshine, out here in my own mind
I live where I can breathe, ain't nothin' but a cool breeze
Nobody that it won't please, out here where you can breathe

Hardwood floor-a-creakin', bedroom door squeekin'
She's standing in the kitchen, I thought she was still sleepin'
I kiss her on the forehead, ask her how she slept
She says, "Honey it's so early, we probably shouldn't speak yet"

I live in my own mind, ain't nothin' but a good time
No rain, just the sunshine, out here in my own mind
I live where I can breathe, ain't nothin' but a cool breeze
Nobody that it won't please, out here where you can breathe

I live in my own mind, ain't nothin' but a good time
No rain, just the sunshine, out here in my own mind
I live where I can breathe, ain't nothin' but a cool breeze
Nobody that it won't please, out here where you can breathe
I live in my own mind, ain't nothin' but a good time
No rain, just the sunshine, out here in my own mind
