please god, don t tell anyone
Please, God, don't tell anyoneWhat I do or what I have done
When my father gets to Heaven
Please spare him the telling
Of the ways I've been sinning ever since the beginning
He?won't?understand?and even if?he did
I'm?still his son
Please, God, don't tell anyone
Please, God, don't show anyone
All the idiot things that I've done
When my son gets to Heaven
Will h? be shown the yelling?
And th? robbing and fighting?
And the thunder and lightning?
He won't know that I did that
Just to feed my own daughter and son
Please, God, don't show anyone (Hey)
Oh, baby, what have I done?
Have I proven myself to no one?
Will the things I did well even save me from Hell?
I can't even recall all the sins
I can't tell
Will a thousand good deeds be erased
Then by just one bad one?
Oh, baby, what have I done? (Hey)
Please, God, don't tell anyone
I was providing, not just having fun
Well, my boy started screaming, so I started stealing
My daughter was crying, so I started lying
My baby was sobbing
So I started robbing with a gun
Please, God, don't tell anyone
Please, God, don't tell anyone
