Oh mama don't walk away I'm a goddam sore loser I ain't too proud to stay But I'm still thinking 'bout you And I'm so lonesome without you And I can't get you out of my mind
Oh mama don't leave me alone With my soul sat down so tight It's like a stone cold tomb Ain't it clear when I'm near you I'm just dying to hear you Calling my name one more time
Oh so don't pay no mind To my watering eyes Must be something in the air That I'm breathing Yes'n I try to ignore All this blood on the floor It's just this heart on my sleeve - that's a bleeding
Oh mama don't walk away You leave me here bereaving From the words so hard and plain Saying the love that we had Was just selfish and sad To see you now with him Is just making me mad
Oh so kiss him again Just to prove to me that you can An I will stand here And burn in my skin Yes I will stand here And burn in my skin
