Tyler Childers – Long Violent History Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:1 Minute, 9 Second

Its the worst that its been since the last time it happened
Its happening again right in front of our eyes
Theres updated footage, wild speculation
Tall tales and hearsay and absolute lies

Been passed off as factual when actually, the actual
Causes theyre awkwardly blockin the way
Keeping us all from enjoyin our evening
Shoving its roots through the screens in our face

Now, what would you give if you heard my opinion
Conjecturin on matters that I aint never dreamed
In all my born days as a white boy from Hickman
Based on the way that the worlds been to m

Its called me belligrent, its took me for ignorant
But it aint never once made me scared just to be
Could you imagine just constantly worryin
Kickin and fightin, beggin to breathe

How many boys could they haul off this mountain
Shoot full of holes, cuffed, and laid in the streets
Til we come in to town in a stark ravin anger
Looking for answers and armed to the teeth

30 aught sixes, papaws old pistol
How many, you reckon, would it be, four or five?
Oh, would that be the start of a long, violent history
Of tuckin our tails as we try to abide?

Oh, would that be the start of a long, violent history
Of tuckin our tails as we try to abide?
