"Keep Me in Mind" is a song recorded by American country music group Zac Brown Band. It was released in August 2011 as the fourth single from the Zac Brown Band's second major-label album, 2010's You Get What You Give.

In the song, the narrator asks that another woman "keep [him] in mind" should she be unsatisfied with her lover. The song is in the key of F-sharp major, with the guitars in E-flat tuning. During the entire first verse, a two-measure guitar riff is repeated. The chorus follows the pattern B-F-B-F-Dm-B-C-F before the tempo slows on the bridge. During this part of the song, piano and a string section are heard, following the pattern Dm-F-Dm-B-F twice before returning to the original tempo and repeating the chorus.

Billy Dukes of Taste of Country gave the song four and a half stars out of five, calling it "fun" and "funky" while adding that the only negative thing that can be said is that it's "more jam band than straight-up country music." Marc Erickson of Roughstock also described the song "jam-band like" and "great sounding," giving it four stars out of five. Dan Milliken of Country Universe gave the song a B- grade, saying that the song "offers some cool musical changes to pad out its slight theme [but] the band moves through everything so smoothly that that padding also starts to seem slight." He goes on to say that "even when they transition into a Luther Vandross-R&B groove – audacious on paper – they do it with so little drama that you hardly notice it."
