Johnny Cash In Your Mind Lyrics

In Your Mind Lyrics

In your mind, in your mind

One foot on Jacob's ladder

And one foot in the fire

And it all goes down in your mind



Living at the bottom of the stairs in your life

Never a smile knocking on your door

The air is blue and so are you

Prehistoric monsters on the floor



Last verse of your last song

And God don't hear dead men

The end of the line is in your mind

And you'll be staying in



In your mind, in your mind

Bone for bone and skin for skin

Eye for eye and tooth for tooth

Heart for heart and soul for soul

Somebody said what is true



Lock it up and close it down

The sound of morning like a dove

High beyond the rattle and roar

Look into the face of love



In your mind, in your mind

One foot on Jacob's ladder

And one foot in the fire

And it all goes down in your mind



In your mind, in your mind

Sunday words are back again

And you'll eat your fun of the middleman's pie

But just a piece you understand

You'll get the rest up in the sky



Praise and glory, wounded angel

Shuffling round the room

Eternity is down the hall

And you sit there bending spoons



In your mind, in your mind

Father, son and holy ghost

Sacrificial drops the pain

On a silver planet cross

Sanctification on a chain



They say redemption draws knives

Storms of silence from above

Stop your ears close your eyes

Try to find the face of love



In your mind, in your mind

One foot on Jacob's ladder

And one foot in the fire

And it all goes down in your mind
