don't go away mad

Don't go away mad

It can't be so bad

Don't hold your breath

You're scaring me half to death

Don't go away mad

'Cause that'd really make me sad

I know you're burnin'

Burnin' like a cigarette

I know we're learnin'

But maybe we ain't learned nothin' yet

Something's burning

Don't go away mad

It can't be so bad

You know what to do

I'm leavin' it up to you

Don't go away mad

That'd really make me sad

Smoke is clearing

If you just ride with me a while

There's no fearing

We can work it out in family style

If you're willing

Don't go away mad

It can't be so bad

Don't hold your breath

You're scaring me half to death

Don't go away mad

You're the best I ever had

What can I do more of

To make a little bit of peace and love

Don't go away mad

'Cause that'd really make me sad
