I Could Have Gone Right

I COULD HAVE GONE RIGHT\n(Mel Tillis)\n«© '64 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI "\nOh I was born a good boy my mama loved me so\nShe gave me every chance she could to make my life a gold\nBut I fell in with the wrong crowd and the wrong crowd led me on\nBut I could have gone right just as easy as I went wrong\nI went to the places where sin just waits for you\nAnd I fell in with the wrong crowd like sinners always do\nNow here I sit in prison just waiting for the day\nWhen they’ll lead me through that door and burn my life away\nOh mama please forgive me the shame is all my own\nFor I could have gone right just as easy as I went wrong\nOh mama please forgive me…
