Don't Let Me Go Songtext
von Allman Brown

Don′t let me go
It's a terrible world to be all alone
Don′t let me fall
I don't get back up well on my own

Own, whoa-oh-oh
Own, own, whoa-oh-oh

Promise me you'll always be my love
You won′t tear me down when my bones grow cold
When the hand′s in the dirt years down the road
I'll lie with you, won′t you lie with me, my love
Don't let me go, don′t let me go, my love

Don't let me drown
′Cause it's a long, long way to go, my friend
All of my pain will try to weigh me down
In the end, end, whoa-oh-oh
End, end, whoa-oh-oh


So please carry me when I'm weary
And I will tend to you when you are tired
Because you′re bound to me
And I am bound to you

You, whoa-oh-oh
You, you, whoa-oh-oh

And promise me you′ll always be my love
You won't tear me down when my bones grow cold
When the hand′s in the dirt years down the road
I'll lie with you, won′t you lie with me, my love
Don't let me go, don′t let me go, my love

Soon when we rise
Two pearly gates, waiting hand in hand
St. Peter's eyes
Ask us: are we ready to go?

Go, whoa-oh-oh
Go, go, whoa-oh-oh

And promise me you'll always be my love
You won′t tear me down when my bones grow cold
When the hand′s in the dirt years down the road
I'll lie with you, won′t you lie with me, my love
Don't let me go, don′t let me go, my love
