Middle of a Heart Songtext
von Adeem the Artist

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

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
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

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

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

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

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


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

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

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?

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
