[Verse 1]
I've got Odessa on my mind, I stay worried all the time
Wish I didn't hurt so much but I don't have that kind of luck
It's a low-down dirty shame now I can't even hear her name
So I'm selling off my pride with Odessa on my mind

[Chorus]
I've got Odessa in my head, I think I'd like to wake up dead
Then I'd finally take my rest and get this weight up off my chest
Yes, I know I'm talking bad but I've done' lost the best I had
Ain't no way to walk no line with Odessa on my mind

[Verse 2]
I've got Odessa on my mind, I think I rather would be blind
Than to see her walk away, how much pain can one fool take?
See them lights out in thе field, a testament to things mеn yield
But I ain't got nothing but time and Odessa on my mind

[Chorus]
I've got Odessa in my head, sometimes I'd like to wake up dead
Then I'd finally take my rest and get this weight up off my chest
Yes, I know I'm talking bad but I've done' lost the best I had
Ain't no way to walk no line with Odessa on my mind
