This old house that I’m livin’ in
Is needing, needing repair.
All the windows and the shutters
Keep lettin’ in the cold, cold air
I say to myself “Gotta fix ’em”
When I can’t find the time
But all I’m gettin’ lately
Is leavin’ on my mind.
Lately all I’ve got is leavin’ on my mind.
Seems that’s all I’m thinkin’ ’bout
Most of the time.
But soon, oh very soon
I’m gonna leave my troubles all behind!
Lately I got leavin, leavin on my mind.
I guess that maybe
I should be out looking
For a better place to live.
But anymore I can’t seem to get very much excited about this old world, what it can give.
You see I couldn’t careless if I could buy it all
With a solitary dime.
For what good would this world do me
With leavin’ on my mind.
Lately all I’ve got is leavin’ on my mind.
Seems that’s all I’m thinkin’ ’bout
Most of the time.
But soon, oh very soon
I’m gonna leave my troubles all behind!
Lately I got leavin’, leavin’ on my mind.
