Lyrics

[00:08.268] Line of limousines leaves one by one
[00:15.042] The prayers been prayed
[00:16.845] The hymns been sung
[00:22.282] Black mascara's already run
[00:28.081] But the tears keep flowing
[00:32.415] You can blame it on hate or blame it on guns,
[00:39.717] but mamas ain't supposed to bury their sons
[00:46.286] Left a hole in her heart and it still ain't done
[00:51.891] The bullet keeps on goin'
[00:57.133] Through every branch of his family tree
[01:00.472] Every birthday that he'll never see
[01:03.883] Every chance to live a good life that was stolen
[01:10.675] Through the son he'll never get to raise
[01:14.485] His daughter on her wedding day
[01:18.068] Wishin' it was his hands she was holdin'
[01:24.867] 'Till every heart that's left to break is broken
[01:30.185] The bullet keeps on goin'
[01:38.862] The grass grows back around the stone
[01:45.647] And friends stop checkin' in on the phone
[01:52.698] The camera crews have all moved on
[01:58.528] But the wound's still open
[02:01.497] The bullet keeps on goin'
[02:06.601] Through every branch of his family tree
[02:10.020] Every birthday that he'll never see
[02:13.326] Every chance to live a good life that was stolen
[02:20.213] Through the son he'll never get to raise
[02:23.996] His daughter on her wedding day
[02:27.600] Wishin' it was his hands she was holdin'
[02:34.430] 'Till every heart that's left to break is broken
[02:39.690] The bullet keeps on goin'
[02:47.174] Oh, whoa
[02:55.475] Line of limousines leaving one by one
[03:02.242] The prayers been prayed
[03:04.163] The hymns been sung
[03:08.763] Oh, mamas ain't supposed to bury their sons
[03:14.474] The bullet keeps on goin'
[03:19.395] Through the son he'll never get to raise
[03:23.094] His daughter on her wedding day
[03:26.768] Wishin' it was his hands she was holdin'
[03:33.211] 'Till every heart that's left to break is broken
[03:38.861] The bullet keeps on goin'
[03:45.783] The bullet keeps on goin'
[03:54.722]
