Scarred for Life

[Intro]
Come on
Hey, yeah

[Verse 1]
I grew up fast on a working class street
First thing I learned was life don't come cheap
Technical school, it was a waste of time
Makin' robots for some factory line

[Verse 2]
Got my first tattoo when I was sixteen
The rebel had lost his teenage queen
I'd taken a stand for an outlaw's life
My ma's words kept ringin', "Your scarred for life"

[Pre-Chorus]
She said, "You're scarred
You've been scarred"

[Chorus]
Scarred for life (Scarred for life)
I fought my way through the trouble and strife
I was scarred (Scarred for life)
My reputation, it cuts like a knife

[Verse 3]
I spent some time a guest of the state
I got out and wanted to go straight
People don't forgive, the force don't forget
I was jailed for crimes I did not commit

[Pre-Chorus]
I was scarred
I was scarred

[Chorus]
Scarred for life (Scarred for life)
I fought my way through the trouble and strife
I was scarred (Scarred for life)
My reputation, it cuts like a knife
I was scarred (Scarred for life)
Been knocked around, I had a hell of a life
I was scarred (Scarred for life)
I fought my way through the trouble and strife

[Bridge]
I fought tooth and nail
Every inch of the way
I got scars
To prove it
I was in love for keeps that time
But rock 'n' roll was still on my mind
She was young and true and so full of life
And the pain went deep, I was scarred for life
I was scarred
I was scarred
Scarred

[Chorus]
Scarred (Scarred for life)
My reputation, it cuts like a knife
I was scarred (Scarred for life)
Been knocked around, I had a hell of a life

[Post-Chorus]
I was scarred, scarred for life
Scarred for life
Yes, I've been scarred, scarred for life
Scarred for life

[Outro]
Yes, I've been scarred
I've been scarred
Scarred for life
Ow
