What My Mama Says About Midnight (Country)

Lyrics
VERSE
Man, I know you were just messin' around
When you got lost, ended up downtown
But you should have resisted boostin' that car
'Cause now you're alone starin' through bars

VERSE
Yeah, man, it was just a party at his place
I'm sure she was cute, but she wasn't your date
That fight you got in kinda messed up your face
You're lucky you're not in a comatose state

PRE-CHORUS
Staying out late may be cool but maybe not altogether
So just listen up to what my mama says about midnight

CHORUS
She says: "Don't nothin' good happen after midnight
When you're away from home, on the roam"
She says: "Don't nothin' good happen after midnight
When the thrill you want is bad to the bone"
It's like my mama always says:
"Don't nothin' good happen after midnight"

SOLO/VERSE
Yeah, man, you had her; it was just a fling
But I see you now out buyin' a ring
Life can leave you swingin' by a string
Midnight whiskey is a dangerous thing

Repeat PRE-CHORUS/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
Yeah, you need to listen up to what my mama says about midnight
