To see what condition my condition was in)
(mickey newbury)

(yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)

I woke up this mornin' with the sundown shinin' in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag within
I tripped on a cloud and fell-a eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

(yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)

I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then i followed it in
I watched myself crawlin' out as i was a-crawlin' in
I got up so tight i couldn't unwind
I saw so much i broke my mind
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in


(yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)

Someone painted "april fool" in big black letters on a "dead end" sign
I had my foot on the gas as i left the road and blew out my mind
Eight miles outta memphis and i got no spare
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

I said i just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in
Yeah yeah oh-yeah
