Letra de I'm the Only Hell Mama Ever Raised
I can tell, my mama's short on loving me Guess that's why she let me go so far Mama try to stopped me short of stealing So I had to steal that car She told me not to smoke it but I did And it took me far awayAnd I turned out to be The only hell my mama ever raisedWell, I rolled into Atlanta Stolen tags and almost out of gas I had to get some money Lately I'd learned how to get it fast Those neon lights were calling me And somehow I just had to get downtown So I reached into the glove box Another liquor store went downAnd I sing, "Precious memories" Take me back to the good ol' days Let me hear my mama sing "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 raisedThey put them handcuffs on me Lord, how I fought to resist But agent clamped 'em tighter 'Til that metal bit into my wrist They took my belt and my billfold My fingerprints and the profile of my face Then they locked away The only hell my mama ever ever raised (ever raised)And I sing, "Precious memories" Take me back to the good ol' days Let me hear my mama sing "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 Ever raisedAnd I turned out to be The only hell my mama ever raised Ever raised
