Henson Cargill Gentle on my Mind Lyrics:
It's knowing that your door is always open and
your path is free to walk That makes me tend to
leave my sleeping bag rolled up and stashed behind
your couch And it's knowing I'm not shacked by
forgotten words and bons And the ink stains that
have dried upon some line That keeps you in the
back roads by the rivers of my mem'ry That keeps
you ever gentle on my mind

It's not clinging to the rocks and I'd be planted
on their columns now that binds me Or something
that somebody said because they thought we fit
together walking It's just knowing that the world
will not be cursing or forgiving When I walk along
some railroad track and find That you're moving on

the back roads by the rivers of my mem'ry And for
hours you're just gentle on my mind

Though the wheet fields and the clothes lines And
the junk yards and the highways come between us
And some other woman's crying to her mother cause
she turned and I was gone I still might run in
silence tears of joy might stain my face And a
summer sun might burn me till I'm blind But not to
where I cannot see you walking on the back roads
By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind

I dipped my cup of soap back from a gurgling
crackling caltron in some train yard My beard a
roughen coal pile and a dirty hat pulled low
across my face Through cupped hands round a tin
can I pretend I hold you to my breast and find
That you're waving from the back roads by the
rivers of my mem'ry Ever smiling ever gentle on my
mind
