Joey's Arm Songtext
von Sons of Bill

Joey′s Arm has two tattoos,
the stars and bars and born to lose,
with glassy eyes he waits for rain,
says it reminds him on his wedding day,

And when you drive through Cumberland in the dark,
you watch the woods and you see the sparks,
you roll down your window and hear the sound,
of broken glass and coming down.


(chorus)
the dirt underneath, the methadone and concrete
has got to be more than dust and bones,
because the south aint gonna rise again,
but were holding out for Jesus,
or so they say on AM radio.

And when you dont fit in at church or bars,
you bite your lip and you hid the scars,
you pass the freeway out of town,
of broken glass and coming down.

(chorus)
the dirt underneath, the methadone and concrete
has got to be more than dust and bones,
because the south aint gonna rise again,
but were holding out for Jesus,
or so they say on AM radio.


Joey's Arm has two tattoos,
the stars and bars and born to lose,
with glassy eyes he waits for rain,
says it reminds him on his wedding day,
