Song by Johnny Cash<br /><br>

In your mind, in your mind <br>

One foot on Jacob's ladder <br>

And one foot in the fire <br>

And it all goes down in your mind <br>

<br>

Living at the bottom of the stairs in your life <br>

Never a smile knocking on your door <br>

The air is blue and so are you <br>

Prehistoric monsters on the floor <br>

<br>

Last verse of your last song <br>

And God don't hear dead men <br>

The end of the line is in your mind <br>

And you'll be staying in <br>

<br>

In your mind, in your mind <br>

Bone for bone and skin for skin <br>

Eye for eye and tooth for tooth <br>

Heart for heart and soul for soul <br>

Somebody said what is true <br>

<br>

Lock it up and close it down <br>

The sound of morning like a dove <br>

High beyond the rattle and roar <br>

Look into the face of love <br>

<br>

In your mind, in your mind <br>

One foot on Jacob's ladder <br>

And one foot in the fire <br>

And it all goes down in your mind <br>

<br>

In your mind, in your mind <br>

Sunday words are back again <br>

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

But just a piece you understand <br>

You'll get the rest up in the sky <br>

<br>

Praise and glory, wounded angel <br>

Shuffling round the room <br>

Eternity is down the hall <br>

And you sit there bending spoons <br>

In your mind, in your mind <br>

Father, son and holy ghost <br>

Sacrificial drops the pain <br>

On a silver planet cross <br>

Sanctification on a chain <br>

<br>

They say redemption draws knives <br>

Storms of silence from above <br>

Stop your ears close your eyes <br>

Try to find the face of love <br>

<br>

In your mind, in your mind <br>

One foot on Jacob's ladder <br>

And one foot in the fire <br>

And it all goes down in your mind<br>

<br>
