Middle of a Heart Lyrics[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Nights get longer
Days stay hard
I learned to bullet through the middle of a heart
I learned to bullet through the middle of a heart
[Verse 4]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
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?
[Chorus]
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
