Straight to Hell - Drivin' N' Cryin'

Straight to Hell Lyrics

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've 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 five a.m., and she is waitin' for meShe said, "Where have you been?"
I said, "I was out"
She said, "You're no good
'Cause you're runnin' without love"I'm going straight to hell, just like my mama said
'Cause I'm going straight to hell
'Cause I'm going straight to hell, just like my mama said
'Cause I'm going straight to hellThe 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
Runnin' down they shouted out, it seemedNext 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 fallin' like a Rolling Stones song'Cause I'm going straight to hell, just like my mama said
'Cause I'm going straight to hell
'Cause I'm going straight to hell, just like my mama said
'Cause I'm going straight to hellThe stars came out and warned me so
As I walked on down the road
Fifty bucks and a suitcase steered me clearShe took my hand as we walked into the sun
A new days promise had begun, we'll make it alone
Whether you like it or not
I turned and shouted, help me mother'Cause I'm going straight to hell, just like my mama said
'Cause I'm going straight to hell
'Cause I'm going straight to hell, just like my mama said
'Cause I'm going straight to hellWon't you come and sing along again now'Cause I'm going straight to hell, just like my mama said
'Cause I'm going straight to hell
