When I think my world is all together

My head's on right and things are settlin' down

I'm takin' every day just the way it comes

And I can do it till Melinda comes around



There's a little man at home depending on me

And a woman that would never let me down

And I love them just as sure as God made feelings

And I do fine till Melinda comes around



I promised me I wouldn't think about her

But Heaven, won't you keep her safe and sound

I've made up my mind not to love her anymore

And I can do it till Melinda comes around



I try to be content with all my blessings

And thankful for the good life that I've found

'Cause if there's such a thing as being happy

I guess I am till Melinda comes around



I promised me I wouldn't think about her

But Heaven, won't you keep her safe and sound

I've made up my mind not to love her anymore

And I can do it till Melinda comes around

And I can do it till Melinda comes around
