By Gregg Allman Copyright 1981 Elijah Blue Music Transcribed by Paul Gongola Mama stood cryin' at the back door Papa's lacin' on his leavin' shoes Little Joe's blowin' on the horn outdoors I've seen enough, I can't take no more And I'm leavin' Might go to Philadelphia, PA Might wind up in Boston, I just can't say Got my axe in one hand Got my Greyhound ticket in the other hand And I'm leavin' I tell you I'm leavin'
Gonna play my blues Yes I'm leavin' Got nothing to lose Well, I'm dying to get the hell out of here Right Away Mama stood cryin' at the back door Papa's lacin' on his leavin' shoes Little Joe's blowin' on the horn outdoors I've seen enough, I can't take no more And I'm leavin' I said I'm leavin' Gonna play my guitar I'm leavin' Don't care if I'm a big star I'm leavin' this old ghetto Right away, right away
