McArthur Lyrics

My name's John McArthur and I work this dirt Till they lay me down in it in my one good shirt I kept my family fed with a mule and a plow I'm a whisper in the wind through the pine trees now And my bloodline, it bled on this ground Soon we all find that's where we're bound And Father Time don't leave anyone out And when you pass on, what you gonna pass down? I'm Junior McArthur and I join my old man By way of a bullet in Vietnam Left behind my woman and my boy named Jones Never got to meet him but he's carrying on My bloodline that bled on this ground Soon we'll all find that's where we're bound And Father Time don't leave anyone out And when you pass on, what you gonna pass down? I'm Jones McArthur and I tried like hell To teach my son why a man don't sell But he came home from college seeing dollar signs Didn't wanna go to work, just wanted me to die And I'm Hunter McArthur and the deal looks good In eighteen months this'll be a neighborhood I got a million dollar line I can sign my name on But there's a whisper in the pines that's tellin' me don't Sayin' my bloodline, it bled on this ground Soon we all find that's where we're bound And Father Time don't leave anyone out And when you pass on, what you gonna pass down? And when you pass on, what you gonna pass down? Gonna pass down? Gonna pass down? Gonna pass down?
