Key: E

Now if (E)you go out and start a playing around 

Your baby's gonna tear your playhouse down

You better (A)keep it on your mind (all the time)

You better keep it on your (E)mind (all the time)

You'll be (B7)moanin' and a groanin', Lord you better keep it on your (E)mind

Now wrong is wrong and right is right

If you make a snake mad he's sure gonna bite

You better keep it on your mind (all the time)

You better keep it on your mind (all the time)

I've had it proven to me, Lord you better keep it on your mind

Every fuss with a woman has got the same ole end

I don't believe the good Lord meant for a man to win

You better keep it on your mind (all the time)

You better keep it on your mind (all the time)

You'll be singing blue and lonesome, Lord you better keep it on your mind

If you make your baby mad and she says goodbye 

There ain't a thing you can do but sit at home and cry 

You better keep it on your mind (all the time)

You better keep it on your mind (all the time)

You better call her sweet mama, Lord you better keep it on your mind

If the judge says pay her forty dollars a week

You'll dig up the money or you'll work the streets

You better keep it on your mind (all the time)

You better keep it on your mind (all the time)

When you're wearing striped britches, son it's gonna stay on your mind

So kiss her every mornin' and love her every night

Boy you can't win no matter if you're right

You better keep it on your mind (all the time)

You better keep it on your mind (all the time)

You better heed this warning, Lord you better keep it on your mind
