Leave A Scar

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

When I die put my bones in the dixie dirt

Look down on me smilin' I don't want no feelings' hurt

All I leave behind me is a ragged old guitar

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

Years they rolled on by, the old man turned me loose

Way cross town I learned about them sad old country blues

Taught me how to pour out my heart and try to make it rhyme

Told me not to ever break but one law at a time

When I die put my bones in the dixie dirt

Look down on me smilin' I don't want no feelings' hurt

All I leave behind me is a ragged old guitar

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

I hope you wear me on your memory like a faded old tattoo

I might not make the history book but I'll burn a page or two

Yeah

When I die put my bones in the dixie dirt

Look down on me smilin' I don't want no feelings' hurt

All I leave behind me is a ragged old guitar

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

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