[Verse] |
|
The old man was a good man he raised his children right |
|
He taught us how to work hard and showed us how to fight |
|
Told me about the good Lord and when to use a gun |
|
Made me very proud of where it is that I come from |
|
[Chorus] |
|
When I die put my father in the big same urn |
|
Look down at me smiling I don't want no beating tune |
|
All I leave behind me is a rag of old guitars |
|
I may not change the world but I'm gonna leave a scar |
|
[Verse] |
|
Years a row nobody, the old man turned me loose |
|
Way cross town I learned about those sad ol' country blues |
|
Taught me how to prep my heart from trying to make it right |
|
Told me not to ever break one alone at a time |
|
[Chorus] |
|
When I die put my father in the big same urn |
|
Look down at me smiling I don't want no beating tune |
|
All I leave behind me is a rag of old guitars |
|
I may not change the world but I'm gonna leave a scar |
|
[Bridge] |
|
Hope you have me on your memory like a painted old tattoo |
|
I might not make a history book but I'll burn a page or two |
|
Yeah |
|
[Chorus] |
|
When I die put my father in the big same urn |
|
Look down at me smiling I don't want no beating tune |
|
All I leave behind me is a rag of old guitars |
|
I may not change the world but I'm gonna leave a scar |
