Let me tell ya about the dirt on my hands, it comes from working red dirt land 

There's scars and dirt under the nails
And a thousand storys only I can tell
I heard Pat say it all washes away with the river of time 
I think I thought I let ya know I'm damn proud of mine
Now they fed my kids and they tilled the land 
And they've been known to save a life now and then..
So don't judge a book by it's cover 
And don't believe everything you've seen 
There's more to these hands than ya think

So let me tell ya about the dirt on these hands it came from working red dirt land
I heard Pat say it all washes away with the river of time 
I think I thought I'd let ya know
I'm damn proud of mine

Now I'm no politician O may never be 
But the the world could use a few more country boys like me 
Now they've fought more than a fight or two
And they'll fight a few more before there thru
So when you look at the scars and grime remember I'm damn proud of mine
I heard of Pat say it all washes away with the river of time
I think I thought I'd let ya know I'm damn proud of mine.

Cancerous consequences

By Jessie Doyle

This is a song I wrote about the tobacco industry and the complete ignorance of the dangers of smoking tobacco products just to fit in and be a part of what is considered trendy, hip and cool as with is with most things in our society people tend to go with the herd and are terrified of being judged or different that they would rather consume lethal poisons than be the individual they really are on the inside and who they really want to be.
