[00:02.44]Sam stone came home
[00:06.10]To his wife and family
[00:09.80]After serving in the conflict overseas
[00:16.91]And the time that he served
[00:20.20]Had shattered all his nerves
[00:24.24]And left a little shrapnel in his knee
[00:30.51]But the ******** eased the pain
[00:34.45]And the grass grew round his brain
[00:38.35]And gave him all the confidence he lacked
[00:45.10]With a purple heart and a monkey on his back
[00:52.06]
[00:52.07]There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes
[01:00.13]Jesus Christ died for nothing I suppose
[01:06.49]Little pitchers have big ears
[01:10.07]Don't stop to count the years
[01:14.00]Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios
[01:24.40]
[01:24.42]Sam stone's welcome home
[01:27.97]Didn't last too long
[01:32.43]He went to work when he'd spent his last dime
[01:38.84]And Sammy took to stealing when he got that empty feeling
[01:45.98]For a hundred dollar habit without overtime
[01:53.00]And the gold rolled through his veins
[01:56.69]Like a thousand railroad trains
[02:00.82]And eased his mind in the hours that he chose
[02:07.50]While the kids ran around wearing other peoples' clothes
[02:14.90]
[02:14.91]There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes
[02:23.10]Jesus Christ died for nothing I suppose
[02:29.46]Little pitchers have big ears
[02:32.89]Don't stop to count the years
[02:35.71]Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios
[02:46.67]
[02:46.68]Sam stone was alone
[02:50.58]When he popped his last balloon
[02:55.05]Climbing walls while sitting in a chair
[03:01.10]Well he played his last request
[03:04.54]While the room smelled just like death
[03:08.75]With an overdose hovering in the air
[03:15.09]But life had lost its fun
[03:18.86]And there was nothing to be done
[03:22.42]But trade his house that he bought on the G I bill
[03:29.55]For a flag draped casket on a local heroes' hill
[03:36.90]
[03:36.91]There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes
[03:45.20]Jesus Christ died for nothing I suppose
[03:51.56]Little pitchers have big ears
[03:54.94]Don't stop to count the years
[03:58.85]Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios
