Willie Nelson - Your Memory Has a Mind of Its Own Lyrics

Your memory has a mind of its own
It knows where to go when it's gone
I think I've lost it, then it proves me wrong
Your memory has a mind of its own

I can't tell it what to do
I can smoke and I can drink
Till it's out of view
But I can't hold it off, it's too strong
Your memory has a mind of its own

Your memory does what it wants to do
It survives, though I don't want it to
I do okay when I don't think of you
But your memory does what it wants to do

If your memory had ears, they'd be burning
If your memory had eyes, they'd be crying
And if it had a heart, it would leave me alone
But your memory has a mind of its own

I can't tell it what to do
I can smoke, I can drink
Until it's out of view
But I can't hold it off, it's too strong
And your memory has a mind of its own

Your memory has a mind of its own
