It´s been a real long time since I´ve seen it
I´m sadly curious what´s going down that way
Within my heart and soul, I´ll always be there
But there´s no way I can go back I just can´t go.

Mama yo can´t go, Mama yo can´t go, no, no
Sometimes I can´t believe how much you miss it
I´m trying to understand mama but I just don´t know
What will you find back there, that you ain´t got here
I won´t go back I´ll tell you now I just can´t go.

I can´t go, I can´t go
Mama yo no can´t go
I can´t go, I can´t go
Mama yo no can´t go no, no.

I´m into liberty, I´m into freedom
And God I know someday they will overcome
Within my heart and soul, I´ll always be there
But there´s no way I can go I just can´t go.

I can´t go, I can´t go
Mama yo no can´t go
I can´t go, I can´t go
Mama yo no can´t go no, no.

No matter what you do or what you say
I ain´t going anyway no
I told you once I´ll tell you twice again
Mama yo no just can´t win no, no.

It´s been a real long time since last I´ve seen it
I´m sadly curious what´s going down that way
Within my heart and soul, I´ll always be there
But there´s no way I can go back I just can´ go.

I can´t go, I can´t go
Mama yo no can´t go
I can´t go, I can´t go

Mama yo no can´t go no, no.
