This old house I'm livin'

in is needing repair

The windows and the shutters are

letting in the cold cold air

I say to myself I'm gonna fi them

When I can get the time

But all I've been getting

lately is leavin' on my mind

Lately all I've got

is leavin' on my mind

Seems that's all I'm thinkin' about

most of the time

Soon and very soon I'll

leave my troubles far behind

Lately I've got leavin'

, leavin' on my mind

I guess I should be looking

for a better place to live

I can't seem to get e cited about

this world and what it can give

I couldn't care less if I could

buy it all with a solitary dime

What good would a world down here

do me with leaving on my mind

Lately all I've got

is leavin' on my mind

Seems that's all I'm thinkin' about

most of the time

Soon and very soon I'll

leave my troubles far behind

Lately I've got leavin'

, leavin' on my mind

Soon and very soon I'll

leave my troubles far behind

Lately I've got leavin'

, leavin' on my mind
