Can't wake my faith and make it happen
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know how
Got by on cheap time but it goes faster
I worn out, I worn out, I worn out now

Mama I want you, you don't know what I'm going through
Mama I need you need you, I don't know what I'm gonna do
I'm empty, I'm see-through, is it the truth that frightens you
If I can't get to you who'll free me from this young man blues

Sing soft I'll hear, you can wake me
I've been out, I've been out, I've been out cold
So long undone I've waited for you
To turn on, to turn on, to turn on me

Mama I want you, you don't know what I'm going through
Mama I need you need you, I don't know what I'm gonna do
I'm empty, I'm see-through, is it the truth that frightens you
If I can't get to you who'll free me from this young man blues

I could know you, you could play
I could feel it all

Mama I want you, you don't know what I'm going through
Mama I need you need you, I don't know what I'm gonna do
I'm empty, I'm see-through, is it the truth that frightens you
If I can't get to you who'll free me from this young man blues
