What My Momma Knew There are skeletons in my bones memories left unknown As far as I believed Dodging my front porch lights I made a dash to my girlfriend's ride But there were eyes watching me That night I longed kiss that girl at the drive in Movie I was elevated in her smile with her by my side But all the words mom said were ringing through my head She didn't want Mary Ellen's name on my lips But the devil wanted hers on mine If God knew what my momma knew Every white lie Saturday night would he give me another chance Or would he shake his head and laugh If God knew what my momma knew A fake ID to catch a buzz and a peek at the girls on the avenue If God knew what my momma knew what would I do Skipping that home room class on Friday us guys would laugh We thought we were invisible invincible Thinking it was fun and games til they found our cigarette trail That led us straight to the principal Mom hunted like a bird dog She could find the eye of a needle in the middle of a crowded room I was born to lose I had more baggage in teenage life Than a landfill or mom’s nerves could survive I’m lucky I’m alive
