Hey Mama by Bill Hicks Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hey mama, don’t you leave me alone
Hey mama, don’t you take off for home
The night is lonely and the dawn is cold without you
Hey mama, don’t you take off so soon
Hey mama, don’t you leave my room
You look so fine underneath the silver moon
[Chorus]
I know that we just met
But I’d be willing to make a bet
That this ain’t chance, it’s destiny
Baby
[Verse 2]
Hey mama, don’t you leave me this way
Hey mama, let’s continue to play
You wanna know me, baby, I’ll show you the way
Hey mama, don’t you leave me here
All alone, baby, with my tears
I’ll never see you again, that’s my biggest fear
[Chorus]
I know that we just met
But I’d be willing to make a bet
That this ain’t chance, it’s destiny
Baby

Hey mama, don’t you leave me alone
Hey mama, don’t you take off for home
The night is lonely and the dawn is cold without you
Hey mama, don’t you take off so soon
Hey mama, don’t you leave my room
You look so fine underneath the silver moon
[Chorus]
I know that we just met
But I’d be willing to make a bet
That this ain’t chance, it’s destiny
Baby
[Verse 2]
Hey mama, don’t you leave me this way
Hey mama, let’s continue to play
You wanna know me, baby, I’ll show you the way
Hey mama, don’t you leave me here
All alone, baby, with my tears
I’ll never see you again, that’s my biggest fear
[Chorus]
I know that we just met
But I’d be willing to make a bet
That this ain’t chance, it’s destiny
Baby
