HEY MAMA, WHEN YOU LEAVE,  
Am 
DON?T LEAVE A THING BEHIND 
F            Am        E            Am              
I DON?T WANT NOTHIN??? I DON?T NEED NOTHIN? 
 
TAKE CARE INTO THE HALL,  
AND IF YOU SEE MY FRIENDS 
TELL THEM I?M FINE??? NOT USING NOTHIN? 
 
ALMOST BURNED OUT MY EYES,  
THREW MY EARS DOWN TO THE FLOOR 
I DIDN?T SEE NOTHIN??? I DIDN?T HEAR NOTHIN? 
 
I STOOD THERE LIKE A BLOCK OF STONE 
KNOWIN? ALL I HAD TO KNOW 
AND NOTHIN? MORE??MAN, THAT?S NOTHIN? 
 
AS BROTHERS OUR TROUBLES ARE 
LOCKED IN EACH OTHERS ARMS 
AND YOU BETTER PRAY?? THEY NEVER FIND YOU 
 
YOUR BACK AIN?T STRONG ENOUGH 
FOR BURDENS DOUBLEFOLD. 
THEY?D CRUSH YOU DOWN??. DOWN INTO NOTHIN? 
 
BEING BORN IS GOING BLIND 
AND BUYING DOWN A THOUSAND TIMES 
TO ECHOES STRUNG?? ON PURE TEMPTATION 
 
SORROW AND SOLITUDE 
THESE ARE PRECIOUS THINGS 
AND THE WORDS??..THAT ARE WORTH REMEMBERIN? 
 
HEY MAMA, WHEN YOU LEAVE,  
DON?T LEAVE A THING BEHIND 
I DON?T WANT NOTHIN??? I DON?T NEED NOTHIN?
