He's a hard workin' easy goin' country boy, he wouldn't harm a fly

Nadine down at the hair salon promised she would be his bride

He took it hard when she ran off with the beauty supply salesman

But that's how romance goes sometimes but Herschel don't understand

(Chorus)

He'll play the same sad song on the old jukebox

Drink up every dime he's got

He'll peel out in his pickup truck, sling gravel through the parking lot

You wouldn't wanna tangle with a grizzley bear

or step on a copperhead snake

So if you cross his path you better beware, been wounded by a woman

He's a hillbilly with a heartache

___

He was gonna buy her a modular home with no wax linoleum floors

Now his mama's worried cause he don't drop by to watch wrestling anymore

He just rides around with a loaded shotgun hangin' in his rifle rack

If I was that smooth talk' city boy

I'd sure be watching my back

(Repeat Chorus)

Them big old arms that used to hold her tight

Cound bring about any man down

When a good ol' boy's been hurt real bad

He just don't give a damn

(Repeat Chorus)

Been wounded by a woman

He's a hillbilly with a heartache
