Don't Tell Mama
Recorded by Gary Allan
Written by Kim Williams, Jerry Laseter, Buddy Brock

C
I was headed north on Highway Five
F
On a star-lit Sunday night
G7 C
When a pickup truck flew by me out of control

As I watched in my headlights
F
He swerved left then back right
G7 C
He never hit the brakes as he left the road


I found him lying in the grass
F
Among the steel and glass
G7 C
With an empty whiskey bottle by his side

And through the blood and tears
F
He whispered in my ear
G7 C
A few last words just before he died

F
Don't tell mama I was drinking
C G7
Lord knows her soul would never rest
C F
I can't leave this world with mama thinking
G7 C
I met the Lord with whiskey on my breath


I still think about that night
F
And how that young man died
G7 C
And how others sometimes pay for our mistakes

The last thing on his mind
F
As he left this world behind
G7 C
Was knowing someone else's heart would break

repeat #3

F
Don't tell mama I was drinking
