Lucky Scars

[Verse 1: Colt Ford]
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

[Chorus: Colt Ford]
Yeah, we just cried and kept on playin'
Didn't run to mom or dad
Friends fought like hell we didn't tattle-tale
'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

[Verse 2: Eddie Montgomery]
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?

[Chorus: Eddie Montgomery]
Well, we just cried and kept on playing
Didn't run to mom or dad
Friends fought like hell never tattle-taled
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

[Bridge: Eddie Montgomery & Colt Ford]
I thank my lucky scars
I thank my lucky scars
I thank my lucky scars
I thank my lucky scars

[Verse 3: Colt Ford]
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

[Chorus]
Yeah, we just cried and kept on playing
Didn't run to mom or dad
Friends fought like hell never tattle-taled
'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
