A Mind To

Now I'm not talking tough, telling the truth ought to be enough

I've had my share on the darker side

Sitting and starring at a

TV screen, racking my brain over all the things

If I'd just been there

I could have tried

Things to do

I can't help but think of more

I could fill my life wothout ever leaving home

I could see the

Seven Ancient

Wonders of the

WorldAnd even build a few more of my own (If I had a mind to)

Quit my job never mind the pay, maybe go figure out the

CIAChase the paper and pass the bar, show

Iacocca how to build a car

Jump up and run a three minute mile, sit around and watch my baby smile

That's what

I might do , if

I had a mind to

No, I don't wanna blow my horn, no telling how many souls

I've wornAnd what kind of shoes, when

I had shoes

I'm still losing a bridge or two, but the troubled water's gonna run onthrough

You can't always win, but you can always lose

But I don't turn my head for things that pass me by

And I'm gonna have a look around

I could gather all the diamonds in the sky

Hold every one and never leave the ground,

If I had a mind to

Fly through the eye of a hurricane, freeze my body like

David Blaine

Be the first to find life on

Mars, go up and sell a few candy bars

Climb a rainbow and kiss the sun, walk on the moon when the day is done

That's what

I might do,

If I had a mind to

Somewhere someone's doing everything

I've saidI don't have to do anything,

I could do it in my head

If I had mind to

Sail away and be

Jacques Cousteau, or the

Crocodile hunter on a

TV showBe the king of the one night stand, front the

Coral Reefer

BandSki Colorado where there ain't no snow, plant a tree and watch it grow

That what

I might do

Go out and buy me a suit and tie, go to work everyday and be a regular guy

Smoking big cigars all day, be the

President of the

USAGet a tattoo and bleach my hair, open a window and breathe the air

That's what

I might do, if

I had a mind to
