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`t go.
Mama yo no can`t go,
Mama yo no 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 back, 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`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
