Intro
Verse 1
A 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
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
Chorus 1
He Said I Got This Rose In Memphis In Some Back Old Alley Dump
Picked This Eagle Up In Dallas, Man I Sure Was Good And Drunk
And You Know The Way I See It, If It Gets Any Worse Out There
A Guy Like Me Hasn't Got A Prayer
Verse 2
The Old Man Poured Some Coffee
He Said This One's On Me
Sat Down His Cigarette And Rolled Up His Sleeve
Said Take A Good Look Here My Friend
You See What These Are
Just My Ragged Old And Jagged Ordinary Scars
Chorus 2
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
Instrumental
Bridge
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
Chorus 3
You Know The Way I See It, You've Been 'Round But You're Still Green
Cause Tattoos And Scars Are Different Things
Reprise
A 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
