A fist through the window
A foot in the front door
A belly full of whiskey and cocaine
He went off the deep end
Yelled I hate you, I'm leavin
I'm takin this car and you wont ever see me again
And she cried, oh where's my sweet little baby
She cried, oh where's my sweet little boy
Have I already lost him
Have I already lost him
Four in the mornin
She heard the phone ring
And knew it was gonna be real bad
They told her they found him
Just south of Blood Mountain
The car was in pieces, but he was hangin on by a thread
And she cried, oh not my sweet little baby
She cried, oh not my sweet little boy
Have I already lost him
It was a long time comin
He was a time bomb waitin to blow
He had to hit rock bottom
He had to fight with the Devil, and pay up the debt he wa owe
A holy revival
His head in the Bible
Learnin to walk straight again
Now he's clean and sober
Be a year in October
He's holdin a good job
And mamma is so proud of him
And she says, oh thats's my sweet little baby
She cried, oh that's my sweet little boy
And she says, oh thats's my sweet little baby
She cried, oh that's my sweet little boy
I thought we had lost him
Lord I thought we had lost him
