Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Johnny lost another job Linda dared ask him why With a little one that needs new shoes And one more not far behind Johnny feels like dying His father saw to that With a mason jar of moonshine And a dark brown leather strap Hope is just another word They know it all so well Just a thing that you hear in church Like heaven and like hell Johnny came home whiskeyed up Cussin' up a storm He hit Linda in the face And the blood was salty warm She apologized to make it stop Held her belly in her hand But Johnny would not listen And he slapped her hard again Hope is just another word They know it all so well Just a thing you hear in church Like heaven and like hell Johnny smashed the family picture Poor Linda lost her mind With her high school baseball bat She snuck up from behind Johnny got up from the sofa She cracked him 'cross the head He fell down in a pool of blood "I hope you're happy" is all he said Hope is just another word They know it all so well Just a thing that you hear in church Like heaven and like hell Just a thing that you hear in church Like heaven and like hell
