D  A  G  D

[Verse 1]
D
I grew up just west of the tracks
A                            G
holding me to hold me back, around your door she's calling out my name
D                        A
I come in at five a.m. and she is waiting for me
G
She said where have you been, I said I was out,
D                     A                G
She said you're no good cause you're running without love

[Chorus]
D
And I'm going straight to hell
A
Just like my momma said
G
I'm going straight to hell
D
I'm going straight to hell
A
Just like my momma said
G
I'm going straight to hell (oh and I'm gonna burn it down, baby)

[Verse 2]
D
The black widow and the ladies' man
A                            G
Met down at the laundromat and tried to make me understand
D                                  A
Just then her mother burst in said, "You're the son of that bitch in the wind
G
Get out of my house and hit the road"
D
And I kept falling like a Rolling Stones song

[Chorus]
D
Cause I'm going straight to hell
A
Just like my momma said
G
I'm going straight to hell (oh straight to Hell)
D
I'm going straight to hell
A
Just like my momma said
G
I'm going straight to hell

[Verse 3]
D
The stars came out and warned me so
A                            G
As I walked on down the road
D                      A
Fifty bucks and a suitcase steered me clear
G
She took my hand as we walked into the sun
D
A new day's promise had just begun
A                            G
We'll make it alone whether you like it or not
D                     A                G
And I turned around and shouted "Help me momma!"

[Chorus]
D
Cause I'm going straight to hell
A
Just like my momma said
G
I'm going straight to hell (oh straight to Hell)
D
I'm going straight to hell
A
Just like my momma said
G
I'm going straight to hell

[N.C.] (Spoken)
Oh Lord help us
Yeah I'll bring the whiskey boys
Y'all taking me with ya
Help me Jesus, help me Jesus, we all are
Oh!
