hunter blalock - cherokee hills (live) lyrics

[verse]

jimmy got married at eighteen
wife and a kid and a happy family
he lived in a quiet neighborhood
had a house on the corner of the street
he signed up for the army
they shipped him overseas
he did his job and he came back home
back to his family
when he got home he found a note
said that they was long gone
she’d run off with some rich man out to north arkansas
so there he stood with that note
her name on his right arm
and months later he got it removed but it left a nasty scar
spеnt some time in the bottlе and poppin’ his prescribed pain pills
he got hooked and booked at rehab out there in cherokee hills
[verse]

jimmy’s hair is grey now
and he walks with a limp
that old scar don’t bother him no more, got the stars and stripes over it
he tells his war stories every thursday night out there at the veteran’s club
yeah, that’s his life
but then the day came
old jimmy breathed his last livin’ breath
they put him in the ground
they flew old glory proud
his daughter spoke at the funeral
her momma had done passed on
and she’d got dumped by that rich man but never had the guts to come back home
and she died of amphetamine abuse out there in arkansas
ain’t it funny how life works out?
she wasn’t no better than him at all
