Bonnie Raitt Picture
Bonnie Raitt, (born November 8, 1949) is an American blues/R&B singer, songwriter, and guitarist who was born in Burbank, California, the daughter of Broadway musical star John Raitt. Raitt began playing guitar at an early age, something not a lot of her high school girlfriends did. Later she would become famous for her bottleneck-style guitar playing. "I had played a little at school and at camp," she later recalled in a July 2002 interview. "My parents would drag me out to perform for my family, like all parents do, but it was a hobby—nothing more...I think people must wonder how a white girl like me became a blues guitarist.

Got You on My Mind Lyrics

Bonnie Raitt

[First Verse:]
I've got you on my mind, I'm feeling kind of sad and low,
I've got you on my mind, feeling kind of sad and low.
I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go.
[Chorus:]
Tears begin to fall every time I hear your name.
Tears begin to fall every time I hear your name.
And since you went away, nothing seems to be the same.
No matter how I try,
My heart just don't see why
I can't forget you.
If ever it shoud be
You want to come back to me,
You know I'd let you.
[First Verse]
[Chorus]
[First Verse]
I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go.
I'm wondering where you are, wondering why you had to go.
