Road Hammers I've Got The Scars To Prove It Lyrics

i shake my head in disbelief, at all my self inflicted
grief
had a strong right hand, i wasn’t afraid to use it

my mama preached till her face was blue, but not a damn
word seemed to make it through
i’ve got the scars to prove it

chorus

i ran on whiskey and burned like gas, i went too far, i
went too fast
i’d light a fire, just to walk right through it

busted bones, dreams and tears, tattoo my heart like
souvenirs
life is just a word till you go through it, i’ve got
the scars to prove it

i lost good friends over foolish pride, drank with the
devil just to feel alive
i’d build a mountain, then i'd try to move it

yeah and i thought that i was pretty tough, till i was
brought down by a woman’s touch
i got the scars to prove it repeat chorus

i ran on whiskey, i burned like gas, i went too far, i
went too fast
i’d light a fire, just to walk right through it

busted bones, dreams and tears, tattoo my heart like
souvenirs
love is just a word till you go through it, i’ve got
the scars to prove it

bridge

now and then regrets may find me, but these marks are
here to remind me
of where i went wrong, what made me strong, and how
i’ve moved on

repeat chorus

i ran on whiskey, i burned like gas, i went too far, i
went too fast
i’d light a fire, just to walk right through it

busted bones, dreams and tears, tattoo my heart like
souvenirs
love is just a word till you go through it
i’ve got the scars to prove it
