Scarred and Scared

Scarred and Scared - Rod Stewart (洛德.斯蒂沃特)

Started out like any one of you

Good intentions and a degree

But one hot night under the neon lights

Killed a boy just seventeen

Now I sit here rainin' on my Maker

Reprieve is all I'm prayin' for

Lord I fear the hangman's steps approachin'

Will the priest knock gently on my door

And I know I've let my Daddy down

And I broke my mother's heart

I'd give anything turn back time again

Just give me one more start

Oww

I don't need no trial humiliation

Just tell me that I'm Heaven bound

I don't want no two faced consolation

What use is that to me six feet underground

I'm goin' down to the engine shed

Put a gun up to my head

Blow myself into the Promised Land

We call it scarred and scared

And if you ever see my son again

Don't let on just how I fared

Tell him tell him I went down big and strong

I was never never never scarred or scared

All the girls that once did gather round me

Have moved along to someone else

Sittin' here desperation is my close friend

What I'd give to kiss one of them now

Ooh yeah I'll take you there

I'll take you there
