Please God, Don't Tell Anyone

Please God, don't tell anyone What I do or what I have done When my father gets to Heaven, please spare him the tellin' Of the ways I've been sinnin' 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 he be shown the yelling? And the 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 the thousand good deeds be erased then by just one bad one? Oh, baby, what have I done? Oh 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 Oh please God, don't tell anyone
