I know you're leavin', leavin' me behind
I'm seein' you darlin' for the very last time
Show a little tenderness mama before you go
Please let me feel your embrace once more
Take me in your arms
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
Oh little darling
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
We all must feel heartache sometimes
Right now, right now I'm feelin' mine
I've tried my best to be strong, but I'm not able
I'm like a helpless child left in a cradle
Before you leave me, mama leavin' far behind
Please let me feel happy one more time
Take me in your arms
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
Oh little darling
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
I'm losin' you and my happiness
My life it is so dark I must confess
I'll never, never see your smiling face no more
I'll never, never hear your knock upon my door
Before you leave me, leave me behind
Please let me feel happy one more time
Take me in your arms
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
Oh please baby
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
Oh yeah, yeah
I'm making you leavin'
(Take me, take me)
Oh baby please yeah
(Take me, take me)
Come on baby
(Take me, take me)
Can't you see me on my knees now
(Take me, take me)
Come baby can't you stay please
(Take me, take me)
Come on baby, oh baby please, please, please
Take me in your arms
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
(Take me, take me, take me)
Oh little darling
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
(Take me, take me, take me)
Come on baby
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
(Take me, take me, take me)
Oh little darling
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
(Take me)
Yeah
(Rock me, rock me a little while)
(Take me, take me)
Oh little darling
