I've got Odessa on my mind, I stay worried all the time Wish I didn't hurt so much, but I don't have that kind of luck It's a low-down dirty shame now I can't even hear her name So I'm selling off my pride with Odessa on my mind I've got Odessa in my head, I think I'd like to wake up dead Then I'd finally take my rest and get this weight up off my chest Yes, I know I'm talking bad, but I've done lost the best I had Ain't no way to walk no line with Odessa on my mind ♪ I've got Odessa on my mind, I think I rather would be blind Than to see her walk away, how much pain can one fool take? See them lights out in the field, a testament to things men yield But I ain't got nothing but time and Odessa on my mind I've got Odessa in my head, sometimes I'd like to wake up dead Then I'd finally take my rest and get this weight up off my chest Yes, I know I'm talking bad, but I've done lost the best I had Ain't no way to walk no line with Odessa on my mind
