You Don't Know My Mind

I went to the race track

My man, he won

He's a money chaser

The gal, that wouldn't give me none

You don't know a woman

You don't know a woman, my

Well, you see me laughing

Laughing just to keep from crying

I said to papa

Can you stand to see me cry

He said, girl

I can stand to see you die

Lord, you don't know a woman

No, you don't know a woman, my

Well, you can see me laughing

Laughing just to keep from crying

He said he didn't want me

I wasn't good enough

I'm gonna get myself

Another man and call his bluff

Lord, you don't know a woman

Oh, you don't know a woman, my

You see me laughing

Laughing just to keep from crying

I'm not good looking

I don't dress fine

But I'm the kind of woman

Who will take her time

You don't know a woman

Oh, you don't know a woman, my

You can see me laughing

Oh, I'm laughing just to keep from crying
