Songtexte Don't Set Me Free - Ray Charles

Don't set me free (don't set me free)
And leave me all alone (and leave me all alone)
Don't make me be (don't make me be)
Just a rolling stone (just a rolling stone)

Lock me up and throw the key away
Make me a prisoner night and day
And whatever you do to me
Don't set me free

Don't set me free (don't set me free)
On my knees I pray (I'm on my knees and prayin')
Have mercy on me (have mercy on me)
Don't send me away (don't send me away)

Like a train jumpin' off a track
Without ya baby, I'd blow my stack
And whatever you do to me
Don't set me free

Like a stamp on a letter
If you let me stick with you (oh, yes I will)
I could love you better
Than anyone else can do

So don't set me free (don't set me free)
Though I've done you wrong (though I've done you wrong)
Baby, can't you see (baby, can't you see)
Without you I can't get along (that I can't get along)

Keep me in a state of agony
Make me miserable as can be
And whatever you do to me
Don't set me free

Like a stamp on a letter
If you let me stick with you (oh, yes I will, baby yeah)
I will love you better
Than anyone else can do

So don't set me free (don't set me free)
Though I've done you wrong (though I've done you wrong)
Baby, can't you see (baby, can't you see)
Without you I can't get along (that I can't get along)

Keep me in a state of agony
Make me miserable as can be
And whatever you do to me
Don't set me free

No, no, no, don't set me free (no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
I'm saying no, no don't set me free (no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
Baby, no, no, don't set me free (no, no, no, no, no, no, no, yeah)
