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, 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
