Heart Of Stone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
i grew up near what they call the flats
aint too many people knows where its at
cant hear the highway cant see a way out
i guarantee it aint nothin worth cryin about
daddy left us all back in '91
left us all wonderin what it was we done
id stand in the yard and stare down the road
i guess i must have missed how i just dont know
got the broken promises
got the broken home
dont break yourself on a
heart of stone
i married a girl i met in tennessee
the baby didnt make it, so neither did we
i still think about her but shes fadin fast
it dont do no good dwellin on the past
got the broken promises
got the broken home
dont break yourself on a
heart of stone
well i call momma every now and then
to say im comin home but i dont know when
well i ran into daddy but its been so long
i dont tell momma, i dont let on
got the broken promises
got the broken home
dont break yourself on a
heart of stone
well i got drunk with daddy just the other night
he said "he was glad to see i turned out alright"
i hear people sayin "like father like son"
dont think about it much but i worry bout it some
a heart of stone
dont break yourself
on a heart of stone
dont break yourself
on a heart of stone
