Broken Tie Songtext
von Good Ol' Persons

I was born in the heart of the country
In a town in the middle of the land
I grew up in a second city
Since I left my home I′ve been traveling back To a time when a family tried to stay together
Back to a time when a love survived
When a woman and a man built a home forever
And tied a knot for the rest of their lives


My brother's gone to New York City
And I find myself in a corner of the west
My mama and daddy have to hold many children
Ten miles apart, more apart than the rest

I′ve been singing songs of the poor and the homeless
I've been singing songs of a love that died
But the saddest song is the story of a family
A million miles apart with a broken tie
