Lyrics Straight to Hell - Cherlene

Straight to Hell

I grew up just west of the tracks
Holding me to hold you back
Around your door she’s calling out my name
She said, «Honey, won’t you go outside?
I’ve got a man coming over tonight
The seventh one in seven days.»
So I go down to the parking lot
Hang around with all my friends
To roam the street til dawn breaks again
I come in at five AM and she’s been waiting for me
She said, «Where have you been?»
I said, «I was out.»
She said, «You're no good cause you’re running without love.»
Cause I’m going straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I’m going straight to hell
Next door a boy who lives about the same age as me
And asked me to come upstairs for a see
Just then his mother burst in
Said, «You're that tramp of a bitch in the wind.»
Get out of my house and hit the road
I kept falling like a Rolling Stones song
I’m going straight to hell
Just like my momma 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
He took my hand, we walked into the sun
A new day’s promise had begun
We’ll make it alone whether you like it or not
I turned around and shouted, «See ya, momma.»
I’m going straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I’m going straight to hell
I’m going straight to hell
Just like my momma said
I’m going straight to hell
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Mother oh, won’t you let me go
Y’all my mom actually did say I was going to hell, but she’s dead and I win
Oh boy
Holy shitsnacks
Holy shitsnacks y’all
But seriously, holy shitsnacks
