Torn Heart
I was standing on corner South Dakota
It was in 89
I met a soldier full of whiskey with no other plans
So I gave up all my time
You know I couldn't understand the mans misery
Till I took the tine to hear
And not to criticize his freeway bridge balcony that I was standing near
You see he caught a plane to a place called Cambodia
It was in 1963
He did his time as an Indian soldier there
Said he was Cherokee
He told me stories of a land worth fighting for
But some misunderstand
He fought the war in Korea hand to hand you see
Signed up again for Vietnam
And I thought to myself'
Torn Heart your bleeding
Torn Heart your tired
Torn Heart your leavin
Insrumental Break
Well if I only had a reason for my agony
If justice could be served
Like just to know who played this crazy joke on me
To know why I got burned
Then I might sing a different song to the Motherland
One that might be heard
But till then I guess my song's gonna stay the same
But its old and it still hurts
And I thought to myself
Torn Heart your Bleeding
Torn Heart your Tired
Torn Heart your Leaving
Torn Heart Your Bleeding
Torn Heart Your Tired
Torn Heart Your Leaving
Torn Heart Your Bleeding
Torn Heart Your Tired
Torn Heart Your Leaving
It was in 89
I met a soldier full of whiskey with no other plans
So I gave up all my time
You know I couldn't understand the mans misery
Till I took the tine to hear
And not to criticize his freeway bridge balcony that I was standing near
You see he caught a plane to a place called Cambodia
It was in 1963
He did his time as an Indian soldier there
Said he was Cherokee
He told me stories of a land worth fighting for
But some misunderstand
He fought the war in Korea hand to hand you see
Signed up again for Vietnam
And I thought to myself'
Torn Heart your bleeding
Torn Heart your tired
Torn Heart your leavin
Insrumental Break
Well if I only had a reason for my agony
If justice could be served
Like just to know who played this crazy joke on me
To know why I got burned
Then I might sing a different song to the Motherland
One that might be heard
But till then I guess my song's gonna stay the same
But its old and it still hurts
And I thought to myself
Torn Heart your Bleeding
Torn Heart your Tired
Torn Heart your Leaving
Torn Heart Your Bleeding
Torn Heart Your Tired
Torn Heart Your Leaving
Torn Heart Your Bleeding
Torn Heart Your Tired
Torn Heart Your Leaving
