Lyrics
but she s up in heaven raising hell
they said she was neat
Everybody tells me i got her hazel eyes, it turn carolina blue when i cry Selma, it turn carolina blue when i cry
Everybody tells me i got her hazel eyes, but she s up in heaven raising hell Selma, cause i m the only apple on the tree
and sit down in the mud
Never even touched a washing machine, cause i m the only apple on the tree, my great grandma s name was selma drye
But never saw the woman i ve seen, it s cause her gunpowder s running through my blood
when i die just put me in the ground beside selma drye
and when i die put me in the ground beside selma drye
And sit down in the mud, they said she was neat
And if i can stand up by myself, my great grandma s name was selma drye
And if i can stand up by myself, and when i die put me in the ground beside selma drye
and sit down in the mud
i know so much she d be proud of me
but never saw the woman i ve seen
But never saw the woman i ve seen, everybody tells me i got her hazel eyes Pickler, cause i m the only apple on the tree
I know so much she d be proud of me, but she s up in heaven raising hell Pickler, kept the peaches and her money in a can and jar
I know so much she d be proud of me, and when i die put me in the ground beside Pickler, and if i can stand up by myself
It s cause her gunpowder s running through my blood, but never saw the woman i ve seen Pickler, that didn t hit the ground
and that s alright with me
That didn t hit the ground, cause i m the only apple on the tree
That stuff don t make you what you are, that didn t hit the ground
It s cause her gunpowder s running through my blood, the way she had been
And when i die put me in the ground beside selma drye, she grew up ragged and she grew up rough
And her old beat-up bible s on my night stand by my bed, it s cause her gunpowder s running through my blood
