Iâm hanging on to my peace of mind
I just donât know
Iâm hanging on to those good times, baby
Just want to let them roll
Iâm gonna make it to the light and joy
Iâll tell you why
I got a woman who can take me there
The apple of my eye
Oh, I just donât know, no no, no, no
I love her so
Donât let me see that morning paper
Cause I donât need those dues
Itâs just the same old murder movie
But they call it the news
Iâll tell you what would be some story
And what would set me free
Is if the same thing happened to everybody
That just happened to me,
oh, I just donât know, no, no, no, no
Iâll never let her go
Every time I hear somebody
sneakinâup behind,
I turn around but I still hear that sound
And just when Iâm about to lose my mind
Here comes my baby
Singing like a nightingale
Coming my way down along
That devastation trail
well tell the lord above
Sheâs got a brand of love
That cannot fail
Iâm hanging on to my peace of mind
Thatâs no lie
Iâm hanging on to my special friend
The apple of my eye
My inspiration, too
Sheâs got a lead on my heart and
My soul and she knows just what to do
Oh, I just donât know, no ,no, no, no
No, I get so low, and my mindâs about to go
But wait a minute, here comes my baby
Singing like a nightingale
Coming my way down along that devastation
Trail
Well, let the fires burn, let the
Floods return
We will prevail
Hanging on to my peace of mind
I just donât know
