Mama - Aaron Lewis

My mama always told me

«Son, you’d best go easy down that road.»

And she said she was sorry

For all the times she couldn’t save my soul

I shoulda listened to her words a little more

Before I packed up and I walked right out that door

Daddy always told me

«Son, you’d better love the best you can.»

And «Don't look back and be sorry

These moments won’t be comin' 'round again.»

But I feel like I could conquer the whole world

When I look up and see those three little girls

But I get lost, I can’t find my way

All my pieces glued together for the world to see

Mistakes I’ve made, consumed by some

Till there’s nothing left of me when all is said and done

Now a preacher man once told me

«Son, I’m not so sure you can be saved.»

He said, «Life is full of choices

And He sees all the bad ones that you’ve made.»

And I said «Yeah, you’re right, I’ll probably go to Hell

But goddamn all the stories I can tell.»

'Cause I’m so lost, I can’t find my way

All my pieces glued together for the world to see

Mistakes I’ve made, consumed by some

Till there’s nothing left of me when all is said and done

So my mama always told me

«Son, you’d best go easy down that road.»
