作曲 : Lane Young kid stepped in from the cold, he ordered up a drink He said don't look surprised old man I'm older than you think If I was the talkin' kind, I could tell you a thing or two And since you didn't ask let me show you my tattoos He said I got this rose in MemphisIn some back old alley dump picked this eagle up in DallasMan, I sure was good and drunk and you know the way I see itIf it gets any worse out there, a guy like me hasn't got a prayer The old man poured some coffee, he said this one's on me Set down his cigarette and rolled up his sleeve Take a good look here my friend, you see what these are Just my ragged old and jagged ordinary scars He said I got this one in Paris in a war 'fore you were born And this one when I was half your age workin' on my daddy's farm And you know the way I see it son, you ain't seen what I've seen' Cause tattoos and scars are different things He said I've been here for all these years And what I know is this, if you look and listen close A man will show you what he is, you know the way I see itYou've been 'round but you're still green' Cause tattoos and scars are different things Young kid stepped in from the cold and he ordered up a drink He said don't look surprised old man I'm older than you think
