Nothin' Lyrics

Calvin Russell Nothin'

Hey mama when you leave
Don't you leave a thing behind
I don't want nothin'
I can't use nothin'
Take care into the hall
And if you see my friends
Tell'em I'm fine
Not usin'nothin'
Almost burned out my eyes
And threw my ears down to the floor
I didn't see nothin'
I didn't hear nothin'
Stood there like a block of stone
Knowin'all I had to know
And nothin'more
And man that's nothin'
Brothers our troubles are
Locked in each others arms
And you better pray
They never find you
'Cause your back ain't strong enough
For the burdens double fold
They'd crush you down
Down into nothin'
Bein'born is goin'blind
And bowin'down a thousand times
The echos strung one pure temptation
Sorrow and solitude these are the precious things
And the only words that are worth rememberin'
