[00:02.920]Sam Stone came home
[00:06.440]To his wife and family
[00:10.120]After serving in the conflict overseas
[00:17.330]And the time that he served
[00:20.850]Had shattered all his nerves
[00:24.970]And left a little shrapnel in his knee
[00:31.430]But the morphine eased the pain
[00:35.160]And the grass grew round his brain
[00:39.080]And gave him all the confidence he lacked
[00:45.660]With a Purple Heart and a monkey on his back
[00:53.150]There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes
[01:01.170]Jesus Christ died for nothin' I suppose
[01:07.440]Little pitchers have big ears
[01:11.000]Don't stop to count the years
[01:14.840]Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios
[01:25.420]Sam Stone's welcome home
[01:29.030]Didn't last too long
[01:33.520]He went to work when he'd spent his last dime
[01:39.770]And Sammy took to stealing
[01:43.240]When he got that empty feeling
[01:47.010]For a hundred dollar habit without overtime
[01:54.150]And the gold rolled through his veins
[01:57.670]Like a thousand railroad trains
[02:01.570]And eased his mind in the hours that he chose
[02:08.390]While the kids ran around wearin' other peoples' clothes
[02:15.820]There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes
[02:24.050]Jesus Christ died for nothin' I suppose
[02:30.400]Little pitchers have big ears
[02:34.000]Don't stop to count the years
[02:37.850]Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios
[02:48.360]Sam Stone was alone
[02:52.000]When he popped his last balloon
[02:56.400]Climbing walls while sitting in a chair
[03:02.460]Well, he played his last request
[03:06.170]While the room smelled just like death
[03:09.910]With an overdose hovering in the air
[03:17.090]But life had lost its fun
[03:20.600]And there was nothing to be done
[03:24.230]But trade his house that he bought on the G. I. Bill
[03:31.420]For a flag draped casket on a local heroes' hill
[03:38.900]There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes
[03:47.050]Jesus Christ died for nothin' I suppose
[03:53.340]Little pitchers have big ears
[03:56.940]Don't stop to count the years
[04:00.900]Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios
