I'm The Only Hell (Mama Ever Raised)
In the style of
Lyrics
i can't sell my
mama short
on lovin' me
guess that's why
she let me
go so far
mama tried to
stop me short
of stealin'
i guess that's why
i had to steal
that car
she told me
not to smoke it
but i did
and it took me
far away
and i
turned out to be
the only hell
my mama
ever raised
but i rolled
into atlanta
stolen tags and
almost outta gas
i had to get
some money
lately i'd learned
how to get it fast
those neon lights
was callin' me
and somehow
i just had to get
downtown
so i reached into
the glovebox
another
liquor store
went down
and i said
precious memories
take me back to
the good old days
let me hear
my mama singin'
rock of ages
cleft for me
she tried to
turn me on to jesus
but i turned on
to the devil's ways
and i
turned out to be
the only hell
my mama
ever raised
well they put them
handcuffs on me
and lord how i
fought to resist
they just clamped
'em tighter
till that metal bit
into my wrist
they took my belt
and my billfold
fingerprints
and the profile
of my face
and then they
locked away
the only hell
my mama
ever raised
and i said
precious memories
take me back to
the good old days
let me hear
my mama singin'
rock of ages
cleft for me
she tried to
turn me on to jesus
but i turned on
to the devil's ways
and i
turned out to be
the only hell
my mama
ever raised
she tried to
turn me on to jesus
but i turned on
to the devil's ways
and i
turned out to be
the only hell
my mama
ever raised
