Collins, Judy - Daddy You've Been On My Mind Lyrics






Perhaps it's the color of the sun cut flat
And covering the crossroads I'm standing at
Or maybe it's the weather or something like that
But Daddy, you've been on my mind

I don't mean trouble, please, don't put me down or get upset
I am not pleading or saying I can't forget
I do not walk the floor bowed down and bent but yet
Daddy, you're just on my mind

Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts they might be narrow
Where you been don't bother me or bring me down in sorrow
It don't even matter to me where you're waking up tomorrow
Daddy, you're just on my mind

I am not asking you to say words like yes and no
Please understand me, I got no place for you to go
I'm just breathing to myself pretending not that I don't know
Daddy, you've been on my mind

When you wake up in the morning, baby, look inside your mirror
You know I won't be next to you, you know, I won't be near
I'd just be curious to know if you can see yourself as clear
As someone who has had you on her mind

Collins, Judy Daddy You've Been On My Mind Comments
  1. J.... M....

    perfection

  2. a.... g....

    judy collins was a pretty darned good guitar player in addition to having a lovely voice and loveliness itself. i think most knew about the last 2 but not the first.

  3. B.... S....

    Do you have the whole video? Or can you tell where I can find it?? Which ever you are comfortable with .... Please please please please 😁😁😁😁😁😁

    B.... S....

    there is a rainbow quest youtube channel with full episodes

  4. A.... g....

    A pure talent, fabulous singer, voice of an angel and excellent guitar player. What more could you even ask for?

  5. D.... D....

    Perhaps it’s the black and white welly boots colouring the film I’m staring at
    Or maybe it’s the picking or something like that
    But Judy Collins you been on my playlist.

  6. F.... U....

    “ it’s old, I think it’s about two years old. “😂🤣😂🤣 Now Judy it’s about 60 years old.

  7. ..... F....

    If this is how women play guitar then we need more of them.

    ..... F....

    ain't that the truth. I could sit, watch, and listen to her play guitar all night ... and that's not taking anything away from her beautiful voice

  8. ..... F....

    2:39 " it's old, i think it's about 2 years old or something".
    Listening to comment like that back then puts a shiver up my spine.

  9. b.... f....

    really like judy Collins singing at this young age, guessing she was in her early 20's at the time. also didn't know pete seeger once had a tv show. was it on pbs?

    b.... f....

    Yes...it was the best program I ever watched. Just like being in a cabin or kitchen and all these fascinating musicians dropped by for coffee......the highlight of PBS in my youth.

  10. s.... ....

    Outstanding and haunting in one breath. Thank you for sharing !

  11. d.... ....

    A lovely clip of early Judy, full of grace!

  12. l.... ....

    SO glad you reposted this!  It was up for many years, then disappeared.  Some of Judy's best heartfelt singing and some of Bob Zimmerman's best poetry.
