Dr. John - Don't Leave Me This Way lyrics

Woke up early this mornin' 'Bout a break a day Fell down on my knees And all you could hear me say Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) 'Cause the woman I love Is goin' home to stay Lay down cross in my bed To rest my achin' head Tears runnin' from my eyes All I could do was cry Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) 'Cause the woman I love Is goin' home to stay I went down to the corner To buy myself a drink I thought that it will help me Because I could not think Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) No oh oh oh (Don't leave me this way) Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) Don't leave me this way (Don't leave me this way) You know the woman I love Is goin' away to stay Oh oh oh oh (Don't leave me this way) Oh oh oh oh (Don't leave me this way) Oh oh oh oh (Don't leave me this way) Oh oh oh oh (Don't leave me this way) You know the woman I love Is goin' away to stay The woman I love Is goin' away to stay You know the woman I love Is goin' away to stay
