I went to this party, mom I remembered what you said You told me not to drink, mom So I drank soda instead I felt so proud inside, mom Just like you said I would Even though all my friends laughed Mom you still said I should I know I did the right thing, mom I know you're always right Now the party is over, mom Because everybody drove out of sight As I got into my car, mom As I pulled into the road The other guy didn't see me, mom And hit me like a load I'm laying here on the pavement, mom I heard the policeman say The other guy was drunk, mom So I'm the one to pay I'm laying here dying, mom I wish you would gat here soon Why did this happen to me, mom My life busted like a balloon There is blood all around me, mom Most of it is mine I heard the paramedic say, mom I'll die in a short time He didn't know what he was doing, mom He was probably at the same party as I The only difference, mom Is - he drank and I died Why do people drink, mom It can ruin your whole life I'm feeling sharpe pains, mom Pains just like a knife The guy who hit me is walking now I don't think it's fair I'm lying here dying, mom While all he does is stare Tell my brother not to cry, mom Tell daddy to be brave When I'm in heaven, mom Right daddy's baby on my grave Someone should have told him, mom Not to drink and drive If they would have taken the time, mom I would still be alive My breath is becoming shorter, mom I'm becoming very scared Please don't cry for me, mom Because when I needed you, you were there I have one last question to ask, mom Before I say goodbye I didn't drink, mom So why am I the one to die This is the end, mom I wish I could look you in the eyes To tell you those final words, mom I love you and goodbye
