Written by Peter Green Now, when I leave this town Won't be - back no more Yes, when I leave this town, mama Won't be back no more I've got the blues so bad Standing 'round my door Yes, I got the blues so bad Why won't you let me be I have the blues so bad, mama Why won't you let me be Now, when I go to Chicago Blues don't you follow me Break: I'm asking mama, mama Please don't cry no tears Yes, I say mama, mama Please don't cry no tears Because I'll always love you Through all my days and years
