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
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"
And 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"
