I'm going to the racetrack to see my pony run
|
If he won some money gonna take my good gals on
|
Yeah, you don't know, you don't know my mind
|
When you see me laughing I'm laughing just to keep from crying
|
|
(break)
|
|
I left my frump standing in the door
|
Lookin' after me a-crying say "You won't come back no more, sweet daddy"
|
You don't know, you dont' know my mind
|
When you see me laughing I'm laughing just to keep from crying
|
|
(break)
|
|
When I asked my mama "Can you stand to say goodbye"
|
She said "Yes, sweet papa, if you can stand to see me cry, Lord"
|
You don't know, ooh my mind, hmmhmm
|
Oh, when you see me laughing, honey, laughing just to keep from crying
|
|
(break)
|
|
I got a handfull o' nickles, got a handfull o' dimes
|
Got a housefull o' youngens and no one mindes
|
Lord, you don't know, you don't know my mind
|
And when you see me laughing I'm laughing just to keep from crying
