I Didn’t Mean To

Lyrics

That July heat, it got to my head
And I did not hear a single word that boy said
I didn’t mean to

Well things went fine for about two weeks
Till I found out he was nothing but a deadbeat
Yeah, I didn’t mean to

Well don’t go blaming Mama
‘Cause I swear she tried to raise me right
No, she ain’t the reason I’m in this here situation tonight
Yeah, I didn’t mean to

When I got home, the door it was locked
But it’s my house, I shouldn’t have to knock
Hey, I didn’t mean to

When I walked in they were both in my bed
I realized right then that they were both better off dead
Yeah, I didn’t mean to

Well don’t go blaming Mama
’Cause I swear she tried to raise me right
No, she ain’t the reason I’m in this here situation tonight
Hey, I didn’t mean to

I went down to some family land
I came back with muddy shoes and bloody hands
Yeah, I didn’t mean to

Now there’s a hole about six foot deep
You can go ahead, go ahead and call the cops on me
And you can tell 'em I didn’t mean to

Well don’t go blaming Mama
‘Cause I swear she tried to raise me right
No she ain’t the reason I’m in this here situation tonight
Hey, I didn’t mean to
Hey, I didn’t mean to
