I’ve got a one track mind …
[instrumental]
Ginny Simms:
I’ve got a one track mind
It’s got a point of view
All the day long
It’s busy with both of you.
Oh, I’ve got a one track heart
Can’t call my heart my own
Early and late
It’s beating for you alone.
I’ve got the stubbornest pair of arms
That reach in your direction
I’ve got a pair of lips
That long for your affection.
Having a one track mind
Has its’ advantage, too
It keeps telling’ me
To tell you that I love you.
And I must do what my one track mind tells me to do
To do
To do …
