  • "Gentle on my Mind" was written by John Hartford and performed by Glen Campbell. We recorded this song in the studio and videoed it in at the Homestead at Rosewood in Branson, Missouri. This was the last video before we worked out how to record audio and video together on location!

    ►LYRICS - Gentle On My Mind
    It's knowin' that your door is always open
    And your path is free to walk
    That makes me tend to leave my sleepin' bag
    Rolled up and stashed behind your couch
    And it's knowin' I'm not shackled by forgotten words and bonds
    And the ink stains that have dried upon some line
    That keeps you on the back roads
    By the rivers of my memory
    And keeps you ever gentle on my mind
    It's not clingin' to the rocks
    And ivy planted on their columns now that bind me
    Or somethin' that somebody said
    Because they thought we fit together walkin'
    It’s just knowin' that the world will not be cursin' or forgivin'
    When I walk along some railroad track and find
    That you're movin' on the back roads
    By the rivers of my memory
    And for hours you're just gentle on my mind
    Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines
    And the junkyards and the highways flow between us
    And some other woman's cryin' to her mother
    'Cause she turned and you were gone
    I still might run in silence, tears of joy might stain my face
    And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind
    But not to where I cannot see you
    Walkin' on the back roads
    By the rivers flowin' gentle on my mind
    You dip your cup of soup back
    From a gurglin' cracklin' cauldron in some train yard
    Your beard a rustlin' coal pile
    And a dirty hat pulled low across your face
    Through cupped hands 'round a tin can
    I pretend to hold you to myself and find
    That you're waitin' from the back roads
    By the rivers of my memory
    Ever smilin', ever gentle on my mind

    ------------
    It's knowin' that your door is always open
    And your path is free to walk
    That makes me tend to leave my sleepin' bag

    And keeps you ever gentle on my mind
    It’s not clingin' to the rocks
    And ivy planted on their columns now that bind me
    Or somethin' that somebody said
    Because they thought we fit together walkin'
    It’s just knowin' that the world will not be cursin' or forgivin'
    When I walk along some railroad track and find
    That you’re movin' on the back roads
    By the rivers of my memory
    And for hours you’re just gentle on my mind
    Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines
    And the junkyards and the highways flow between us
    And some other woman's cryin' to her mother
    'Cause she turned and you were gone
    I still might run in silence, tears of joy might stain my face
    And the summer sun might burn me till I'm blind
    But not to where I cannot see you

      To the Petersens, I understand your desire to sing it from a woman's perspective. But can you go through the lyrics again, I find discontinuation as you replace I with you, especially, when
      "some other woman's cryin' to her mother
      'Cause she turned and you were gone"
      From the beginning, it is a woman who is singing and the man is stable in one place.
      "You dip your cup of soup back "
      again here until now, the woman is the one leaving the man, suddenly the man is the one travelling

    I'm a Brit but I had the pleasure of riding route 66 on a Harley a few years back. All I can say to you yanks is ignore the flak you get from us europeans - yes none of our countries are perfect but this rendition of the song just takes me back to that middle america where you have the most beautiful countryside and people and should be rightly proud.

    A couple announcements...
    1. As we noted in the description, the song was written by John Hartford! The video is titled "Glen Campbell" because our versions sound more similar and he made the song famous. We love and respect both of these amazing artists!
    2. (Edit) "Gentle on my Mind" is available now for download!
    iTunes: music.apple.com/us/album/gentle-on-my-mind/1486990638?i=1486990640
    Spotify: open.spotify.com/track/6W9BUBMF94fLkBJsIT8rRR?si=1XeCPYQrTKqTHataJtA5Ig
    3. We've been seeing a lot of your requests for live audio. We loved the idea but did not have the equipment to record live until a couple weeks ago. Our next song will be an original AND a live performance!
    As always, thank you all for your continued support! Our family loves making music together and people like you make that possible. - The Petersens

    I started crying! Glenn is smiling down on you, and yes, he's even singing with you! He has ALWAYS been proud of you and your family. I know he would have much rather been here with you, however, he's making the BEST stage EVER for you. God bless you and your family! I love you. Along with you daddy!❤
