Lie To Your Mama Lyrics

Leaves changing colors out in the cold

Both of our jackets were smothered in smoke

'Cuz we lit a fire and sat on the back

Of my Chevrolet while we took sips of Jack

That early September, you drifted away

Drove off to college somewhere out of state

You said goodbye and I stayed behind

And I didn't stop you but damn if I tried

You might not always be stuck in my head

Might not see your car when I'm stopped at a red

And I wouldn't wonder how I'm gonna move on from us

When I run in to her in the grocery store aisle

I wouldn't have to fake it and put on a smile

When she asks how I've been

And I say I'm fine

I wouldn't have to Lie To Your Mama

I've turned every corner, been down every road

Trying to forget us in dust clouds and smoke

But this county line only reminds me I didn't stop ya

But damn if I tried

You might not always be stuck in my head

Might not see your car when I'm stopped at a red

And I wouldn't wonder how I'm gonna move on from us

When I run in to her in the grocery store aisle

I wouldn't have to fake it and put on a smile

When she asks how I've been

And I say I'm fine

I wouldn't have to Lie To Your Mama

You might not always be stuck in my head

Might not see your car when I'm stopped at a red

And I wouldn't wonder how I'm gonna move on from us

When I run in to her in the grocery store aisle

I wouldn't have to fake it and put on a smile

When she asks how I've been

And I say I'm fine

I wouldn't have to Lie To Your Mama

I wouldn't have to Lie To Your Mama
