She's Got a Single Thing On Her Mind - Conway Twitty

She was nine years old when I first met her She didn't dress like anyone When she ran in a race the boys couldn't catch her I stood back and let her run I used to walk her home after school Every chance that I could I'd say to her, "You're not like the other girls" And she'd say, "Good" She's got a mind of her own She don't care what they say They can tell her she won't But she will anyway She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me The world turned and ten years later I was playin' in a band She was chasin' an education College boys beggin' for her hand I used to call her late at night Every chance that I could I'd say to her, "I can't get you out of my mind" And she'd say, "Good" She's got a mind of her own She don't care what they say They can tell her she won't But she will anyway She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me Now, here we are, a few turns later She still don't dress like anyone People say she's got no limits I stand back and let her run 'Cause when the lights go out at night What we're feelin' is understood I'd say to her, "You're not like the other girls" And she says, "Good" She's got a mind of her own She don't care what they say They can tell her she won't But she will anyway She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me They can tell her she won't But she will anyway She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me Her heart belongs to me She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me She's got a mind of her own Her heart belongs to me She's got a mind of her own But her heart belongs to me She's got a mind of her own

It might be your smile, 'cause it can change my day Blue eyes that chase my blues away It might be your touch That keeps me comin' back for more Her lovin' words that keep me goin' strong That heart of hers I hang my future on What it is, well, I can't say for sure It's just she's got this thing about her She's got this thing about her Like the magic in your favorite song You just can't put your finger on In her arms when we're all alone I get the feelin' that I've come back home She's got this thing about her She stops time when she moves through a room When she leaves she's always gone too soon I'm countin' down the minutes 'til she's back She's the love I've known eternally It always feels brand new to me I can't separate the fiction from the fact It's just she's got this thing about her She's got this thing about her Like a hymn in a cathedral hall Watchin' April snowflakes fall In her arms when we're all alone I get the feelin' that I've come back home She's got this thing about her Like a magic in your favorite song You just can't put your finger on She's got this thing about her

She's got her ticket I think she gonna use it I think she's going to fly away No-one should try and stop her Persuade her with their power She says that her mind is made up She's got her ticket I think she gonna use it I think she's going to fly away No-one should try and stop her Persuade her with their power She says that her mind is made up Why not leave why not go away Too much hatred Corruption and greed Give your life And invariably they leave you with nothing Young girl ain't got no chances No roots to keep her strong She's shed all pretenses That someday she'll belong Some folks call her a runaway A failure in the race But she knows where her ticket takes her She will find her place in the sun Why not leave why not go away Too much hatred Corruption and greed Give your life And invariably they leave you with nothing She's got her ticket I think she gonna use it I think she's going to fly away No-one should try and stop her Persuade her with their power She says that her mind is made up And she'll fly fly fly...

Well Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa men have named you You're so like the lady with the mystic smile Is it only 'cause you're lonely they have named you For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile Well, it your smile to tempt a lover Mona Lisa Or is this your way to hide a broken heart Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep They just lie there and they die there Are you warm, are you real Mona Lisa Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art? Well in a Villa in a little old Italian town Lives a girl whose beauty shames the rose Many yearn to love her but their hopes all tumble down What does she want I guess nobody knows Is your smile to tempt a lover Mona Lisa Or is this your way to hide a broken heart Are you warm, are you real Mona Lisa Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art?

Hello darling, happy birthday I've decided not to give you a present this year In fact I think it's about time I took some things away. I'd like to take away the suspicion That I know clouds your world at times By giving you some faith to hold on to, honey Whenever your hand is not in mine. Happy birthday darling, I've no present, no fancy cake But I hope I'll make you happy with everything I take. I'd like to take away some of your lonely moments By spending more time with you And I'd like to take away some of those so, so kisses And replace them with ones that really say, I love you. And I want to take away the doubt You sometimes have about my love By showing it more, much more than I've shown you lately And then if someone should ask you What I got you for your birthday Well you can say, why he didn't give me anything But he sure took a lot of things away. Happy birthday darling I've no present, no fancy cake But I hope I'll make you happy with everything I take. Happy birthday darling I've no present, no fancy cake But I hope I'll make you happy with everything I take. Happy birthday, darling...
