[Intro]
Under the neon glow, I took a ride,
A reckless heart with secrets to hide.
The moonlight danced on the asphalt sea,
But don’t tell Momma what’s become of me.
[Verse 1]
Turned the radio loud, let the melody flow,
A whiskey bottle whispering through the wind's blow.
Starlit sky witness to my shattered dreams,
I thought I was flying, but I’m bursting at the seams.
[Pre-Chorus]
Dear Lord, I’m stumbling through this night,
Searching for a sign, while I’m losing the fight.
I see the headlights, they’re blinding my path,
Just another drink, inviting fate’s wrath.
[Chorus]
Don’t tell Momma I was drinking and driving,
'Cause she’d break down and cry, she wouldn’t survive it.
Meet Jesus with whiskey on my breath,
Dancing with danger, this feeling of death.
Keep it a secret, bury it deep,
Tonight I’m the shepherd, these sinners I keep.
[Verse 2]
Reflections of sorrow break on the glass,
Lost in the moments, too reckless to pass.
Hitchhikers of fate, I’m gripping my wheel,
Counting the blessings, disguised in my zeal.
[Pre-Chorus]
Dear Lord, I’m stumbling through this night,
Searching for redemption while I’m craving the light.
I see the flashing, a siren’s embrace,
Just another drink, I’m lost in this race.
[Chorus]
Don’t tell Momma I was drinking and driving,
'Cause she’d break down and cry, she wouldn’t survive it.
Meet Jesus with whiskey on my breath,
Dancing with danger, this feeling of death.
Keep it a secret, bury it deep,
Tonight I’m the shepherd, these sinners I keep.
[Bridge]
I know the road is wild, the stakes never low,
Each sip that I take, it’s a mask for my woe.
Momma’s prayers echo, they don’t let me be,
But I hear them now, like they're calling to me.
[Chorus]
Don’t tell Momma I was drinking and driving,
'Cause she’d break down and cry, she wouldn’t survive it.
Meet Jesus with whiskey on my breath,
Dancing with danger, this feeling of death.
Keep it a secret, bury it deep,
Tonight I’m the shepherd, these sinners I keep.
[Outro]
So here’s to tomorrow, let the sun break through,
I’ll find my way back, to the life that I knew.
With Jesus on my side and my heart on my sleeve,
I’ll tell Momma the truth when I’m ready to leave.
