randy travis – good intentions lyrics
mama always prayed that i’d be a better man than daddy
and i determined not to let her down
deserted by the man she loved
and left to raise four children
we were the local gossip of the town
i promised her that i’d live right
and not be like the others
but i wound up in jail on christmas day
i told her i’d be home and not to worry ’bout my brothers
when i got home my mom had p-ssed away
chorus:
and i hear tell the road to h-ll
is paved with good intentions
but mama my intentions were the best
there’s lots of things in my life
i’d just as soon not to mention
looks like i turned out like all the rest
but mama my intentions were the best
a little boy with big blue eyes
a-beggin’ to go fishin’
i promised him but never took the time
now they won’t let me see him
and i sit here a-wishin’
wishin’ i could hold him one more time
chorus:
and i hear tell the road to h-ll
is paved with good intentions
but mama my intentions were the best
there’s lots of things in my life
i’d just as soon not to mention
looks like i turned out like all the rest
but mama my intentions were the best
but mama my intentions were the best
