Title: Gary Allan - Don't Tell Mama

(Kim Williams/Jerry Laseter/Buddy Brock)



I was headed north on Highway Five

On a star-lit Sunday night

When a pick-up truck flew by me out of control

As I watched in my headlights

He swerved left then back right

He never hit the brakes

As he left the road



I found him lying in the grass

Among the steel and glass

With an empty whiskey bottle by his side

And through the blood and tears

He whispered in my ear

A few last words just before he died



Don't tell Mama I was drinkin'

Lord knows her soul would never rest

I can't leave this world with Mama thinkin'

I met the Lord with whiskey on my breath



I still think about that night

And how that young man died

And how others sometimes pay for our mistakes

The last thing on his mind

As he left this world behind

Was knowing someone else's heart would break



Don't tell Mama I was drinkin'

Lord knows her soul would never rest

I can't leave this world with Mama thinkin'

I met the Lord with whiskey on my breath



Don't tell Mama I was drinkin'
