I don´t want to go away Is there a way you can let me stay Just a week, another day The time to understand Why you´re sending me away
Where I go to I don´t know I just feel it´s gonna be cold The place with that man Old enough to be you I don´t need another you
You always said you loved me so But now momma turns her head down The minute I´m around
I don´t want to go away Little sister she can stay You´re telling me to be strong But whatever I did wrong Can´t you see I´m still small too
Every night I pray ´n pray
I promise you wouldn´t notice if I stayed Brother told me I got sold To the man in gold by you I said it wasn´t true
For I was always your little girl But now momma turns her head down The minute I´m around
I don´t want to go away I don´t want to go away I promise you wouldn´t notice if I stayed Will there be mum and you This place I´m going to It won´t be warm It ´ll be no home Must be something I didn´t do Can I still make it up to you
