Mama, You Been on My Mind

Johnny Cash

Transposer:

When you wake up in the morning baby look inside your mirror I won't be next to you you know I won't be near I'd be curious to know if your reflection is as clear As the one that I've got on my mind Mama you been on my mind Well perhaps it's the wind and the dark dark night that's covering The crossroads that I'm at And maybe it's the weather or something like that But mama you been on my mind Mama you been on my mind Well I don't need trouble please don't put me down Don't get upset I am not pleading I won't say I'll forget And I won't pace a floor bowed down and bent but yet Mama you been on my mind Mama you been on my mind Even though my mind is hazy and my thoughts are kinda narrow Where you been don't bother me or bring me down with sorrow It don't matter to me where you'll be waking up tomorrow But mama you been on my mind Mama you been on my mind

La chanson évoque la nostalgie et l'absence d'une personne chère. Le narrateur se réveille en se rendant compte qu'il ne sera pas auprès de cette personne, se demandant si son reflet est aussi clair que les pensées qu'il a d'elle. Il décrit une certaine hésitation face à la solitude et au doute, sans vouloir se laisser abattre par des pensées négatives. Bien qu'il ait l'esprit brouillé et des interrogations sur l'avenir, il ressent une profonde connexion qui persiste, peu importe les circonstances. Ce morceau s'inscrit dans un contexte de belles mélancolies et de réflexions personnelles, où les souvenirs et les sentiments demeurent omniprésents, même dans les moments de solitude.
