Just A Dream (On My Mind) - Lou Donaldson

It was a dream, baby

Just a dream I had on my mind

Yes, it was a dream, baby

Just a dream I had on my mind

But when I woke up this morning

Not a thing could I find

I dreamed I hit the number

I won the lottery too

I dreamed I had so much money

I didn’t know what to do

But it was a dream, baby

Just a dream I had on my mind

But when I woke up this morning

Not one dollar could I find

I dreamed I went to the White House

Sat in the president’s chair

He came in with his tenor saxophone

Said «Lou, I’m glad you’re here»

But it was a dream, baby

Just a dream I had on my mind

When I woke up this morning

Not a president or Kenny G could I find

I dreamed we had a party

Everything was nice

We had pig foot potato salad

Black eyed peas and rice

But it was a dream, baby

Just a dream I had on my mind

Because when I woke up this morning

Not one pig foot could I find

I dreamed that I got married, uh-oh

Raised a big family

My wife had about 20 children

Not one of 'em looked like me

But it was a dream, baby

Just a dream I had on my mind

Because when I woke up this morning

Every one of those children looked like mine
