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
