"Don't Set Me Free "
(Ray Charles)
 

Don’t set me free

And leave me all alone

Don’t make me be

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

On my knees I pray

Have mercy on me

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

I could love you better, than anyone else can do

So don’t set me free

Though I’ve done you wrong

Baby can’t you see

Without you 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

I could love you better, than anyone else can do

So don’t set me free

Though I’ve done you wrong

Baby can’t you see

Without you 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

I’m saying no, no don’t set me free

Baby, no, no, don’t set me free
