Lucky Scars Lyrics

Got a 32-stitch reminder
From my elbow to my wrist
When those 6th-grade kings
Dared me to jump my Mongoose across that ditch
The mark that's left of my left eye
Is from a Daisy BB gun
When Tom and Mitchell got tired of shooting cans
So we shot me just for fun

Yeah, we just cried and kept on playing
Didn't run to mom or dad
Friends fought like hell
We didn't tattletell
'Cause we all knew better than that
I count my blessings
For those lessons
I survived when I look back
I thank my lucky scars for that
I thank my lucky scars for that

This one right here below my ear
I got from cold beer drinking
Kissing on some girl
Who wasn't mine for kissing
Wasn't no Facebook, no Instagram
And to this day I say "yes, ma'am"
Ain't it funny what you can learn
When you listen

Well, we just cried and kept on playing
Didn't run to mom or dad
Friends fought like hell Never tattletell
We all knew better than that
Well, I count my blessings
For those lessons
I survived when I look back
I thank my lucky scars
I thank my lucky scars for that

I thank my lucky scars
I thank my lucky scars
I thank my lucky scars
I thank my lucky scars

Last night I held you in my arms
I thank my lucky scars
For all that makes us who we are
I thank my lucky scars
For every fell and broke and cut and cracked
They found the road to where you're at
I thank my lucky scars for that

Yeah, we just cried and kept on playing
Didn't run to mom or dad
Friends fought like hell
We didn't tattletell
'Cause we all knew better than that
I count my blessings
For those lessons
I survived when I look back
I thank my lucky scars for that
I thank my lucky scars for that
I thank my lucky scars for that
Amen
