[Verse 1: Jelly Roll]
Mama was a pill-poppin' pretty little number
Tendin' bar at the Quality Inn
Every single day, she was uppin' the stakes
To a game that nobody could win
Her kids would stay the night with the neighbors
Mama wouldn't be home until later
We heard she was turnin' tricks for paper
That was just another Tuesday night in those trailers
[Chorus: Jelly Roll]
White trash roots run deeper
I done seen pain pills turn to needles
The things I've done to numb these feelings
Is somethin' that you can't outrun
(Woah)
(You can't unlive where you're from)
(Woah)
You can't unlive wherе you're from
[Verse 2: Jelly Roll]
I know women who sell lovе by the hour
I've seen men fall in love with the powder
I ain't kiddin', y'all, I've seen fentanyl
Sneak in the deep and then sink in and end it all
I learned early that that's life
I seen dreams turn to ash at the end of a glass pipe
Mama was a pill-poppin' pretty little number
Tendin' bar at the Quality Inn
Every single day, she was uppin' the stakes
To a game that nobody could win
Her kids would stay the night with the neighbors
Mama wouldn't be home until later
We heard she was turnin' tricks for paper
That was just another Tuesday night in those trailers
[Chorus: Jelly Roll]
White trash roots run deeper
I done seen pain pills turn to needles
The things I've done to numb these feelings
Is somethin' that you can't outrun
(Woah)
(You can't unlive where you're from)
(Woah)
You can't unlive wherе you're from
[Verse 2: Jelly Roll]
I know women who sell lovе by the hour
I've seen men fall in love with the powder
I ain't kiddin', y'all, I've seen fentanyl
Sneak in the deep and then sink in and end it all
I learned early that that's life
I seen dreams turn to ash at the end of a glass pipe
