[Verse 1] Daddy's gonna buy me a brand-new gun Show me how to clean it in the yard Papaw says he can't wait to see me Fire with that steady arm A couple hours of waitin' and some heavy concentration Put a bullet through the middle of a heart
[Pre-Chorus] Everybody's gonna be so glad to see The freezer full of fresh deer meat Mama's gonna be so proud of me When we get back to the farm
[Chorus] Nights get longer Days get hard I learned to put a bullet through the middle of a heart I learned to put a bullet through the middlе of a heart
[Verse 2] Carlene askеd if she could marry me Drivin' round in Daddy's car I gave her my graduation ring Down by the lumber yard I felt the violent hit of her passionate kiss Like a bullet through the middle of a heart
[Pre-Chorus] Everybody's gonna be so glad to see Her down the aisle at our wedding Mama's gonna be so proud of me Spinnin' around a steel guitar
[Chorus] Nights get longer The days stay hard It hits like a bullet through the middle of a heart It hits like a bullet through the middle of a heart
[Verse 3] Daddy paid his service 'til his time was due His buddy recruits these days Says I can make my country proud And get my education paid Face them fears, make it three years And, brother, you'll have it made
[Pre-Chorus] Everybody's gonna be so glad to see Me wearin' that robe with my degree Mama's gonna be so proud of me God bless the USA
[Chorus] Nights get longer Days stay hard I learned to put a bullet through the middle of a heart I learned to put a bullet through the middle of a heart
[Verse 4] I didn't have a grudge to bear To any of the people there But I came home haunted By the lives my duty cost I felt the barrel's tip against my ribs Put a bullet through the middle of a heart
[Pre-Chorus] Everybody's gonna be so sad to see The flag disappear into the earth with me Mama, do you think you still believe I'm gonna see the face of God?
[Chorus] Nights gets longer The light goes dark I've learned to put a bullet through the middle of a heart I've learned to put a bullet through the middle of a heartTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
