Sold to the Man in Gold - Axelle Red

I don’t want to go away

Is there a way you can let me stay

Just a week, another day

The time to understand

Why you’re sending me away

Where I go to I don’t know

I just feel it’s gonna be cold

The place with that man

Old enough to be you

I don’t need another you

You always said you loved me so

But now momma turns her head down

The minute I’m around

I don’t want to go away

Little sister she can stay

You’re telling me to be strong

But whatever I did wrong

Can’t you see I’m still small too

Every night I pray 'n pray

I promise you wouldn’t notice if I stayed

Brother told me I got sold

To the man in gold by you

I said it wasn’t true

For I was always your little girl

But now momma turns her head down

The minute I’m around

I don’t want to go away

I don’t want to go away

I promise you wouldn’t notice if I stayed

Will there be mum and you

This place I’m going to

It won’t be warm

It 'll be no home

Must be something I didn’t do

Can I still make it up to you

That man cold, old
