Your Mind Is On Vacation Songtext

I see you laughin' Right in my face I guess I'm gonna have to Put you in your place Because if silence was golden You couldn't raise a dime Because your mind is on vacation And your mouth is working overtime You're quoting figures And dropping names You're tellin' stories About the dames You're over-laughin' When things ain't funny You're tryin' to sound Like you're the big money, honey If talk was criminal You'd lead a life of crime Because your mind is on vacation And your mouth is working overtime Life is short, talk is cheap Don't go makin' promises that you can't keep If you don't like this little song I'm singin' Just grin and bear it All I can say is if the rich shoe fits, wear it If you must keep talkin', please try to make it rhyme Because your mind is on vacation And your mouth is working overtime Well, I recall when we first met It was on a Friday night We spent two lovely hours together And the world seemed all right I'm beggin' you, baby, please stop that off-the-wall jive 'Cause if you don't treat me no better It's gonna be your funeral and my trial Well, the Lord made the world and everything that's in it The way my baby loves me, it's a sign that it's it [?] She can love to heal the sick, she can love to raise the dead You might think that I'm jokin', you better believe what I said I'm beggin' you, babe, please stop that off-the-wall jive Oh, if you don't treat me no better It's gonna be your funeral and my trial I see you laughin' Right in my face I guess I'm gonna have to put you in your place 'Cause if talk was criminal You'd lead a life of crime Because your mind is on vacation And your mouth is working overtime
