Hey, momma, when you leave Don't leave a thing behind I don't want nothing Can't use nothing Take care into the hole And if you see my friend Tell him I'm fine Not using nothing Almost burnt down my eyes And threw my ears down to the floor I didn't see nothing I didn't hear nothing I stood there like a block of stone Knowing all I had to know And nothing more Man, that's nothing I pray As lovers our troubles are Locked in each other's arms And you better pray That they never find you 'Cause your back ain't strong enough The burden's double fold They crush you down Down into nothing Being born is going blind Bow down a thousand times Echo strong A pure temptation Sorrow and solitude These are the precious things Beyond our words That are worth remembering Sorrow and solitude These are the precious things Beyond our words That are worth remembering
