Don't Take It Away

(album: Keepin' The Horse Between Me And The Ground - 2016)

(Uhh, man, we gon' bust out this one-string Diddley Bow, now. It's gon' bark at you. Know what I'm sayin'?)

The thing I'm trying to be, is just being me
The things I wanna hold onto, is the things I got for free
One man to do their thing, one man who wanna sing
Why you wanna [?], oh no, just don't take it away

(Yessir. Come on, man, you know what I'm talking 'bout.)

The things that money buy, is just the things that money buy
But the things that's really worth it, well, they make me feel alright
When I get to, get to sang, when I get [?] thing
[?] get to play [?] don't take it away

Don't take it away
Hear what I say
Don't take it away
Hear what I say

(Hey, man, don't take it away. It's all I've got y'all
It's all I've got. Don't take it away
It's my soul we're talking 'bout here. It's what I do
It's my soul, Lord.)

(Yeah, this is it up here, right here. Now I remember [?].)

See, the thing I'm trying to be, is just being me
The things I wanna hold onto, is the things I got for free
One man to do their thing, one man who wanna sing
Why you wanna [?], oh no, just don't take it away

Don't take it away
Hear what I say
Don't take it away
Hear what I say

(Don't take it away
It's all I got
Don't take it away
It's all I got.)
