Got my head on straight
Got my mind made up
It took long, long time

Now what good is a man
Who doesn't have a plan
He don't know
Where's going
Which way the turn
Or what's gonna do

I was alone and so lost
And misery was the cause
But now I'm feeling ten feet tall
I have enough of it all
Oh, I feel free

Got my head on straight
Got my mind made up
It took long, long time

Got my head on straight
Got my mind made up
It took long, long time

Now what good is a life
If you have to go over it twice
Never know where you stand
Always feeling less than a man
You really are

I was so blind to see
I could not find the best in me
But now I know what I need
I only have myself to please
And I feel free

Got my head on straight
Got my mind made up
It took long, long time

Got my head on straight
Got my mind made up
It took long, long time
