When I Left Home

(album: Stone Crazy! - 1981)

Blind man standing on, on the corner
He said I don't, ah, I don't need a dollar
And don't you give me a dime
Until you bring back that little girl
Ow my
Yeah

Yeah

The people try to tell me to stop crying
And find me someone new
'Cause when the good Lord made one woman
Hallelujah, don't you know he made two

And I can't let her go no no
Lord Lord know I can't let her go
Yeah
And I can't let her go no no no
Lord Lord Lord Lord I can't let her go no

A thing about the blues
You know my mother and father
Are no longer with me to
Share this problem and
But they did tell me
Sometime ago says a

The best in town
