I grew up just west of the tracks  Holding me to hold me 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 7th one in 7 days"    So I go down  To the parking lot  And hang around  All my friends  And roam the street 'till dawn  Breaks again  I come in at five am  And she is waitin' for me  She said, "where have you been?"  I said,  "I WAS OUT"  She said, "you're no good 'cause  You're runnin' without love"  I'm going straight to hell  Just like my mama said  I'm going straight to hell  The black widow and the  Ladies man  Met down at the laundromat  AND TRIED TO MAKE me  Understand  The neighbors were  All in a stir  About what they might have heard  And runnin' down they 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, "you're the son of that  Bitch in the wind  Get outta my house  Hit the road"  I kept fallin' like a  ROLLING STONES SONG  I'm going straight to hell  Just like my mama said  I'm going straight to hell  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 and shouted  HELP ME MOTHER  I'm going straight to hell  Just like my mama said  I'm going straight to hell  MOTHER  LOVE HER  WON'T YOU LET ME GO
