Don't Tell Mama
Ty Herndon

(Jerry Laseter/Buddy Brock/Kim Williams)

I Was Headed Noth On Highway Five, One Star Lit Sunday Night
When A Pickup Truck Flew By Me Out Of Control
As I Watched In My Headlights He Swerved Left And 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
Through The Blood And Tears He Whispered In My Ear
A Few Last Words Just Before He Died

Don't Tell MaMa I Was Drinking
Lord Knows Her Soul Would Never Rest
I Can't Leave This World With MaMa Thinking
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 Drinking
Lord Knows Her Soul Would Never Rest
I Can't Leave This World With Mama Thinking
I Met The Lord With Whiskey On My Breath

Lyrics by Ty Herndon

  A Few Short Years   A Love Like That   A Man Holding On (To A Woman Letting Go)   Before There Was You   Big Hopes   Big Time Dreamer   Hands of A Working Man   Hat Full of Rain   Heart Half Empty   Heather's Wall   Her Heart Is Only Human   Hide   How Much Can One Man Love You   I Can't Do It All   I Have to Surrender   I Know How the River Feels   I Want My Goodbye Back   I'd Move Heaven And Earth   If I Could Only Have Her Love Back   If the Road Runs Out   In A New York Second   In The Arms Of The One Who Loves Me   In Your Face   It Must Be Love   Living In A Moment   Lookin' For The Good Life   Love At 90 Miles An Hour   Love Don't Work That Way   Love Revival   Loved Too Much   Mercy Line   Mighty Mighty Love   No Brakes   No Mercy   Pray For Me   Pretty Good Thing   Putting the Brakes on Time   Putting The Breaks On Time   Returning the Faith   Right About Now   She Wants to Be Wanted Again   Someday Soon   Somewhere a Lover   Steam   Stones   Summer Was a Bummer   Tears In God's Eyes   That's What I Call Love   The Only Way I Know   There Will Be a Better Day   Thinkin' With My Heart Again   We Are   What Mattered Most   You Can Leave Your Hat On   You Can Leave Your Hat On [by The Fans' Request]   You Don't Mess Around With Jim   You Just Get One   You Still Own Me
