Verse 1 I was headed north on highway 5 On a starlit summer night When a pickup truck flew by me out of control As I watched in my headlights He swerved left and then back right He never hit the brakes as he left the road Verse 2 I found him lying in the grass Among the steel and glass With an empty whisky bottle by his side Through the blood tears He whispered in my ear A few last words just before he died Dont tell mama I was drinkin Lord knows her soul would never rest I cant leave this world with mama thinkin That I met the lord with whiskey on my breath Verse3 I still think about that night And how that young man died And how others sometimes pay for our mistakes The last thing on his mind As he left this world behind Was knowing someone elses heart would break Chorus
