From the recording The Bluff
This song was originally written in 1983 - inspired by a girl I knew at the time.
The music was revised in 2018 - the feel of the song was retained but additional guitar elements were added to enhance its overall musicality.
Lyrics
ONE TRACK MIND
Verse 1
Oh what to do?
When you cannot choose
Her heart’s pulling in so many different directions (oh yeah);
Somebody must lose
In a game of emotions
She’s holding all the deck but dealing the cards like she never knew the rules.
Chorus
She’s got a one track mind, yeah a one track mind
But she can’t find the right track to take (oh yeah);
Oh well she’s so blind, but she ain't one of a kind
But she’s a tough one to break (oh yeah).
Verse 2
Just take a look
See how she plays the game
She’s always picking new targets but never hits the mark (oh yeah);
You’d better beware
If she traps you in her snare
If you thought you were the only one, well, you’d be sadly mistaken.
Chorus
She’s got a one track mind, yeah a one track mind
But she can’t find the right track to take (oh yeah);
Oh well she’s so blind, but she ain't one of a kind
But she’s a tough one to break (oh yeah).
Bridge
Oh boy just beware
Don’t get trapped in her snare
You’ll find you’re not alone……… there
In there, in there (well)....
Chorus
She’s got a one track mind, yeah a one track mind
But she can’t find the right track to take (oh yeah);
Oh well she’s so blind, but she ain't one of a kind
But she’s a tough one to break (oh yeah).
Outro
To break………Oh to break……….Yeah to break
