I Let My Mind Wander

Willie Hugh Nelson (pronounced /wɪli nɛlsən /; born April 30, 1933) is an American country music singer-songwriter, as well as an author, poet, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music. He was one of the main figures of outlaw country, a subgenre of country music that developed at the end of the 1960s as a reaction to the conservative restrictions of the Nashville sound. Nelson has acted in over 30 films, co-authored several books, and has been involved in activism for the use of biofuels and the legalization of marijuana. more »

I let my mind wander 
And what did it do
I just kept right on goin' 
Until it got right to you
Can't trust it one minute 
It's worst than a child
This old face without conscience 
And it's driving me wild
When I let my mind wander 

I try to keep my mind busy
With thoughts of today but 
In terrible memories 
Seem to lure it away
My lonely heart wonders 
If there'll ever come a day
When I can be happy 
But I can't see no way
Cause I let my mind wander
