Middle Of A Heart Songtext
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 waiting and some heavy concentration
Put a bullet through the middle of a heart

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

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

Carlene askеd if she could marry me
Driving 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

Everybody's gonna be so glad to see her down the aisle at our wedding
Mama's gonna be so proud of me spinning around a steel guitar

Nights get longer
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

Daddy paid his service till 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

Everybody's gonna be so glad to see me wearing that robe with my degree
Mama's gonna be so proud of me
God bless the USA

Nights get longer
Days stay hard
I learn to bullet through the middle of a heart
I learn to bullet through the middle of a heart

I didn't have a grudge to bear with any of the people there
But I still came home haunted by the lives my duty cost
I felt the barrel's tip against my rib
And put a bullet through the middle of a heart

Everybody's gonna be so sad to see that flag disappear into the earth with me
Mama, do you think you still believe I'm gonna see the face of God?

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 heart
