My Head's On Straight

I got my head on straight

I got my mind made up

It took a long, long time

Now what good is a man

Who doesn't have a plan?

He don't know where he's going

Which way to turn

Or what he's gonna do

I was alone and so lost

And then misery was the cost

But now I feel ten feet tall

I've had enough of it all

And I feel free

I got my mind made up

I got my head on straight

It took a long, long time

To get it together, to get it together

My head on straight

I got my head on straight

It took a long, long time

Now what good is a life

If you have to go over it twice

Never knowing where you stand

Always feeling less than the man

You really are

I was so blind, you see

I could not find the best in me

But now I know what I need

I've only got myself to please

Oh, I feel free

I got my mind made up

I got my head on straight

It took a long, long time

To get it together, to get it together

My mind's made up

I got my head on straight

It took a long, long time

To get it together, to get it together

My head's on straight

I got my mind made up

It took a long, long time

I got it together, I got it together

Mind's made up straight

I got my head on straight

It's all about my mind

I got it together, I got it together

My head's on straight

My mind made up

Took a lifetime

I got it together, I got it together
