Arkansas
I went to Arkansas to find me some kin
They say my daddy's getting out of the pin
My mama told me I'm like him, a temper like a fire
A frame just like a wire
And if this was real, if this was what I need
If this was home, if this was everything
You'd run away, you wouldn't stay
If this was real
So don't be true, now don't be true
You'll be my apple pie and I'll be your pearl
Your appaloosa has grown up from a girl
You'll look at me like families do
And I'll look back at you, fit you like a shoe
And if this was real, if this was what I need
If this was home, if this was everything
You'd run away, you wouldn't stay
If this was real
So don't be true, now don't be true
I went to Arkansas to find me some kin
I've be a rain dog as long as I've been
Save for this ring of glass and tin
The skin around my bones is all that I call home
They say my daddy's getting out of the pin
My mama told me I'm like him, a temper like a fire
A frame just like a wire
And if this was real, if this was what I need
If this was home, if this was everything
You'd run away, you wouldn't stay
If this was real
So don't be true, now don't be true
You'll be my apple pie and I'll be your pearl
Your appaloosa has grown up from a girl
You'll look at me like families do
And I'll look back at you, fit you like a shoe
And if this was real, if this was what I need
If this was home, if this was everything
You'd run away, you wouldn't stay
If this was real
So don't be true, now don't be true
I went to Arkansas to find me some kin
I've be a rain dog as long as I've been
Save for this ring of glass and tin
The skin around my bones is all that I call home
