G
I grew up just west of the tracks
D
Only me to hold me back
C G
Round your door she’s callin out my name
G
Said son won’t ya go outside
D
I gotta man comin over tonight
C G
It was the seventh one in seven days
G
So I walked down to the parkin lot
D
And I hang around with all my friends
C G
And I roam the streets till dawn breaks again
G
I come in at five AM and
D
She’s waiting for me
C
She said where you been I said I was out she said
G
Your no good cause you’re runnin without love
Chorus
G
I’m goin straight to hell
D
Just like my momma said
C G
I’m goin straight to hell
G
I’m goin straight to hell
D
Just like my momma said
C G
I’m goin straight to hell
G
Black lady and little man
D
Met down at the Laundromat
C G
And they tried to make me understand
G
Neighbors were all in a stir
D
Bout what they might have heard
C G
Running round and shouting out son
G
Next door a girl she lives
D
Bout the same age as me and she
C G
Asked me to come upstairs and see
G
Just then her mother burst in
D
Said you son of a b***h in the wind
C
Get outta my house hit the road so I
G
Kept on goin like a rollin stone
Chorus
G
Stars came out to warm my soul
D
As I walked on down the road
C G
Fifty bucks and a suitcase steered me clear
G
She took my hand we walked into the sun
D
A new days dawning had begun
C
We’ll make it along whether ya like it or not
G
Turned around and shouted help me mamma
Chorus
Chorus

-mammy | 9/24/2002 | great tab man!! just try it with capo 1....i think its a little more accurate...but great tab man! -viperdrew | 6/29/2004 | nope, no capo -ginormous | 3/16/2005 | Are the lyrics correct on this? All I have is the live version and I can't really tell for sure in some places. If so, he sure didn't spend much time on writing the verse lyrics...great chorus though. -Beau2137 | 9/3/2005 | As far as I know, they are correct! -Country7896 | 9/4/2005 | This is a cover song of Drivin' n' Cryin', an Atlanta band from the mid 80s to mid 90s. They still will do a gig here or there and their lead singer, Kevn (correct spelling) Kinney tours regular. Check out one of their sites for the correct lyrics. -Mister Charlie | 2/6/2006 |
