I was headed north on Highway Five On a star-lit Sunday night When a pick-up truck flew by me out of control As I watched in my headlights He swerved left then back right He never hit the brakes As he left the road
I found him lying in the grass Among the steel and glass With an empty whiskey bottle by his side And through the blood and tears He whispered in my ear A few last words just before he died
Don't tell Mama I was drinkin' Lord knows her soul would never rest I can't leave this world with Mama thinkin' I met the Lord with whiskey on my breath
I still think about that night And how that young man died
