Just Dropped In (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

[In_The_Wind]

15. Yeah yeah oh-yeah

[LisaM]

10. Now the song is stuck in MY head. Thanx.

I'm pretty sure it's Kenny Rogers in his "rocker lite" period of the mid-60's...

[leftylady]

14. It's such a good song, tho

Thanks for the words. I don't think I ever really heard them before. I like them. But I'm an old hippy so what can I say.

[rsdsharp]

Yeah, it's the First Edition. Later Kenny Rogers and the First Edition
