Joey’s Arm Joey’s arm has two tattoos The stars and bars and “born to lose” With glassy eyes he waits for rain Says it reminds him of his wedding day And when you drive through Cumberland in the dark And you watch the woods and you see the sparks Roll down the window and hear the sound of broken glass and coming down CHORUS And the dirt underneath the methadone and concrete Has gotta be more than dust bones ‘Cause the south ain’t gonna rise again but we’re holding out for Jesus or so they say on AM radio When you don’t fit in at church or bars you bite your lip and you hide the scars Pass the freeway out of town for broken glass and coming down CHORUS Won’t someone turn on AM radio? Joey’s arm has two tattoos The stars and bars and “born to lose” With glassy eyes he waits for rain Says it reminds him of his wedding day
