All through school he did real well got a good job in the sawmill yeah

But he wanted more so he went away

As he stepped on board the 8-0-2 he could hear his daddy say

Listen to the big bell ringin' on the hillside

I hear the town choir singin' oh so sweet and high

Lady Luck's got a heart of stone

You're the pride of Franklin County don't you leave your natural home oh yeah



A small town kid with the big city blues a yearnin' heart and taped up shoes yeah

He wanted more so he went astray

Took a gun and he stole a car and he was on his way

Listen to the big bell ringin' on the hillside

Hear the town choir singin' oh so sweet and high high

Lady Luck's got a heart of stone

But the pride of Franklin County's gonna make it on his own

[ strings ]

He got tough Lord he was hard yeah he robbed a bank oh didn't see the guard

The guard shot him down and as he lay there dyin'

People gathered round and they swore they heard him say

Listen to the big bell ringin' on the hillside

Hear the town choir singin' oh so sweet and high

Lady Luck's got a heart of stone

Now the pride of Franklin County's goin' home

Listen to the big bell ringin' on the hillside...

Finally comin' home
