Blackberry Smoke - Leave A Scar lyrics

rate me

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 and I come from

Chorus:

When I die I put my phones in the dixie dirt

look down on me smiling I don't want no beating tune

all I leave behind me is a rag of old guitar

I may not change the world but I'm gonna leave a scar

Years ain't wrong nobody, the old man turned me loose

way cross town I learned about those sad old country blues

taught me how to prep my heart from trying to make it right

told me not to ever break but one alone at a time

Chorus:

When I die I put my phones in the dixie dirt

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

Oh oh oh

Hope you have me on your memory like a painted old tattoo

I might not make no history book but I'll burn a page or two

Chorus:

When I die I put my phones in the dixie dirt

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
