Straight to Hell - Edwin Mccain, Drivin N Cryin, Audley Freed

I grew up just west of the tracks

Holding me to hold me back

Around your door, she’s calling out my name

She said «Son, won’t you go outside

«I got a man coming over tonight»

The seventh one in seven days

So I go down to the parking lot

Hang around all my friends

Roam the street 'til dawn breaks again

I come in at 5 A.M.

and she is waiting for me

She said, «Where have you been?»

I said «I was out»

She said «You're no good 'cause you’re running without love»

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

Just like my mama says

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

Just like my mama says

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

The black widow and the ladies' man

Met down at the laundromat

And tried to make me understand

The neighbors were all in a stir

About what they might have heard

And runnin' down they shouted out it seemed

Next door, a girl she lives

About the same age as me

And asked me to come upstairs for a see

Just then her mother burst in

Said «You're the son of that bitch in the wind

«Get out of my house and hit the road»

And I kept falling like a Rolling Stones song

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

Just like my mama says

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

Just like my mama says

'Cause I’m going straight to hell, yes I am

Stars came out and me so

As I walked on down the road

Fifty bucks and suitcase steered me clear

She took my hand as we walked in the sun

A new day’s promise had begun

We’ll make it alone whether you like it or not

I turned around to shout it out, «Help me mother!»

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

Just like my mama says

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

Just like my mama says

I’m going straight to hell

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

Just like my mama says

'Cause I’m going straight to hell

Mother lover won’t you let me go
