Not What I Had In Mind Lyrics - Millennium Collection: 20th Century Masters - George Jones

Just thought I'd have a little fun and paint the town 

I always said someday I'll walk the line 

But now she's gone and I'm the bluest guy around 

And that's not exactly what I had in mind 

I thought that I could play the field and be a clown 

I broke the heart that loved me many times 

Yes, I know that I'm the biggest fool in town 

And that's not exactly what I had in mind 

I didn't mean for things to get so out of hand 

I always meant to make it up in time 

But now she's gone, she hates the very sight of me 

And that's not exactly what I had in mind

I told myself, "Go play around you're young and free" 

Too late I found that I was oh so blind 

I lost a love I never did deserve at all 

But that's not exactly what I had in mind 

No, that's not exactly what I had in mind
