Letra de Scars & Souvenirs

[Verse 1]
It's been 15 some odd years since we lost Aunt Lil
Plays Russian Roulette with memories nothin' but time to kill
He's too old to work his cattle and too stubborn to stay in bed
And each mornin' over coffee, he turns to her picture and he says
[Chorus]
"Oh I've been better
I've been worse a time or two
I got two bloodshot eyes
And that's enough to see me through
Fair to middlin' considerin'
Life's mostly scars and souvenirs"
[Verse 2]
There's wrinkles on his face and wrinkles on his clothes
And he wears a little thinner as each day unfolds
He swears he'll live forever just to spite his health
But it takes Christian Brother's brandy to reassure himself
[Chorus]
"Oh I've been better
I've been worse a time or two
I got two bloodshot eyes
And that's enough to see me through
Fair to middlin' considerin'
Life's mostly scars and souvenirs"
[Verse 3]
A picture is worth a thousand words
And money made is money spent
Bless us oh Lord, for these thy gifts
I know not where they went
Now the postman brings his pension
And the county brings his meals
And I drop by from time to time
To ask him how he feels
[Chorus]
"Oh I've been better
I've been worse a time or two
I got two bloodshot eyes
And that's enough to see me through
Fair to middlin' considerin'
Life's mostly scars and souvenirs"
Life's mostly scars and souvenirs
