[Verse 1: Colt Ford]

Got a 32-stitch reminder

From my elbow to my wrist

When those 6th-grade kings

Dared me to jump my Mongoose across that ditch

The mark that's left of my left eye

Is from a Daisy BB gun

When Tom and Mitchell got tired of shooting cans

So we shot me just for fun

[Chorus: Colt Ford]

Yeah, we just cried and kept on playin'

Didn't run to mom or dad

Friends fought like hell we didn't tattle-tale

'Cause we all knew better than that

I count my blessings for those lessons

I survived when I look back

I thank my lucky scars for that

I thank my lucky scars for that

[Verse 2: Eddie Montgomery]

This one right here below my ear

I got from cold beer drinking

Kissing on some girl who wasn't mine for kissing

Wasn't no Facebook, no Instagram

And to this day I say "Yes, ma'am"

Ain't it funny what you can learn when you listen?

[Chorus: Eddie Montgomery]

Well, we just cried and kept on playing

Didn't run to mom or dad

Friends fought like hell never tattle-taled

We all knew better than that

Well, I count my blessings for those lessons

I survived when I look back

I thank my lucky scars

I thank my lucky scars for that

[Bridge: Eddie Montgomery & Colt Ford]

I thank my lucky scars

I thank my lucky scars

I thank my lucky scars

I thank my lucky scars

[Verse 3: Colt Ford]

Last night I held you in my arms

I thank my lucky scars

For all that makes us who we are

I thank my lucky scars

For every fell and broke and cut and cracked

They found the road to where you're at

I thank my lucky scars for that

[Chorus]

Yeah, we just cried and kept on playing

Didn't run to mom or dad

Friends fought like hell never tattle-taled

'Cause we all knew better than that

I count my blessings for those lessons

I survived when I look back

I thank my lucky scars for that

I thank my lucky scars for that

I thank my lucky scars for that

Amen
