I grew up just west of the tracks Holding me to hold you 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 walk on down to the parking lot, Hang around with all my friends, and roam the streets til dawn breaks again I come in at five 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 momma said I'm going straight to hell I'm going straight to hell Just like my momma said I'm going straight to hell The black widow and the ladies man Met down at the laundrmat and tried to make me understand The neighbors were all in a stir About what they might have heard And running down and 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 your that son of a bitch in the wind Get out of my house and hit the road And I kept falling like a Rolling Stones song The stars came out and warned me so As I walked on down the road Fifty bucks and a suitcase steered me clear She 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 around and shouted help me mother
