Lunceford and His Orchestra, 1937 - 1939, Chronological Classics 520.
Too much competition in this love
affair,
I want you exclusively, there's
nothing I can spare;
So I say, night and day,
Honey, keep your mind on me.
Let them take you dancing, take
you out to dine,
But if they begin romancing, don't
forget your mine;
When it's love they speak of,
Honey, keep your mind on me.
If someone offers you more than
I do
Don't be misled,
Someday you'll find I can offer
you, too,
Baby, use your heart and head!
I'm so mad about you, say we'll
never part!
I can't live without you; you're
the keeper of my heart,
So if you love me, too,
Honey, keep your mind on me.
I'm so mad about you, say we'll
never part!
I can't live without you; you're
the keeper of my heart,
So if you love me, too,
Honey, keep your mind, honey, keep
your mind on me!
