I went to college,

My first day Mom,

And you told the truth, I love it,

I already made friends and was invited to a party.

I'm at the party now Mom,

So tell Dad not to worry,

If I dont call tonight,

I'll tell you about the party tommorrow.

Dont be mad Mom,

I just gave it a try,

Just a little nip to taste,

And dont worry I didnt like it.

We're leaving early Mom,

So I might be able to call you afterall,

My friends are laughing and goofing off,

Tell Dad not to worry though, Im driving like he taught me.

We're at the last intersection Mom,

So expect a phone call soon,

My friends are hitting the back of my seat,

Should I tell them to stop Mom?

Mom? Can you tell Dad I'm sorry?

That I didnt keep my eyes,

On the road like he told me,

and looked away a moment instead?

I'm sorry to you to Mom,

That I had to go home so soon,

And that the phone call you got,

Was unexpected.
