I lost my daddy when I was eight years old,
that cave-in at the Kincaid mine left a big old hole.
And I lost my baby brother, my best friend and my left hand
in a no-win situation in a place called Vietnam.
And last year, I watched my loving wife
OF FIFTY YEARS WASTE AWAY AND DIE,
and I held her hand 'til her heart of gold stopped pumping.


So this ain't nothin'.
