Текст песни Always On My Mind - Johnny Cash , Willie Nelson

Maybe I didn't love you quite as often as I could have
Maybe I didn't treat you quite as good as I should have
If I made you feel second best, girl I'm sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Maybe I didn't hold you all those lonely, lonely times
I guess I never told you that I'm so happy that you're mine
Little things I should have said and done, I just never took the time

But you were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
And give me, give me one more chance to keep you satisfied
I'll keep you satisfied

Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time

But you were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

(Oh well) thank you
You know, so many people say, come up and say
My father was in prison with you
My father was in prison with you?
Yeah, right
I hear that, I hear a lot about it
Actually, I wrote Folsom Prison Blues on the night after, ah...
On the night after I saw the movie Inside The Walls of Folsom Prison
I was in the air force in Germany in 1952 when I wrote it
The thing then was to hope someday I will sing on the radio, you know
Sing a song on the radio (yeah) and ah... so I didn't...
I never thought about recording the song when I, when I wrote it
But I wrote it as if, I tried to write it as if I were a criminal
Well, that was a stretch I know
Yeah, it was a... it was a real stretch
And I thought about what is the most evil thing a man...
... Over the most evil reason for a man to kill somebody
And I figured just watching him die might be a pretty good evil reason
(I see that...)
