Straight To Hell

Kinney
1989 Island Music, Inc BMI

I grew up just west of the tracks
Holding me to hold me back
Around your door
She's callin' out my name

She said "Son, won't you go outside
I've got a man comin' over tonight"
The seventh one in seven days

So I go down to the parkin' lot
Hang around all my friends
I roam the streets till dawn
Breaks again

I come in at five am
And she is waitin' for me
She said "Where ya been?"
I said "I was out"
She said "You're no good 'cause
You're runnin' with out lover

I'm goin' straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I'm goin' 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
She said "You're the son of that bitch in the wind"
Get outta my house and hit the road
And I kept fallin' like a Rolling Stones song

'Cause I'm goin' straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I'm goin' straight to hell

The stars came out and warmed me so
As I walked on down the road
Fifty bucks and a suitcase
Steerin' me clear

She took my hand as we walked into the sun
A new day's promise had begun
We'll make it alone
Weither you like it or not
I turned around and shouted
"Help me mother"

'Cause I'm goin' straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I'm goin' straight to hell

I'm goin' straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I'm goin' straight to hell

Won't you come along and sing it all again now

'Cause I'm goin' straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I'm goin' straight
To hell

Mother love her won't you let me go
