Bastard Child |
Well momma never was no angel, |
Daddy never was no saint |
There ain’t a pretty childhood picture |
these family lines can paint |
This ain’t no sob story |
This ain’t no complaint |
Hell, I’m proud of who I am |
Proud of what I ain’t |
Cause I was born a bastard child, |
Daddy run off and momma run wild |
I got a crooked cowboy smile |
I walk a crooked country mile |
Coulda done worse, shoulda done better |
Momma woulda tried if the bottle ever let her, |
I ain’t prince or a pile, |
ain’t doing bad for a bastard child |
I was a fathers only son of a bitch |
one the family never claimed |
and you can bet I didn’t grow up rich |
and never really had a last name |
I bear the mark of the bastard child |
but I wear it with no shame |
for any good or bad I’ve done |
I’ll take the credit and the blame |
Cause I was born a bastard child, |
Daddy run off and momma run wild |
I got a crooked cowboy smile |
I walk a crooked country mile |
Coulda done worse, shoulda done better |
Momma woulda tried if the bottle ever let her, |
I ain’t prince or a pile, |
ain’t doing bad for a bastard child |
Well I’m a son of the earth |
a real bad seed |
All I’ll ever be worth |
is all I’ll ever need |
I’m just thankful for my birth |
and for my family |
or else I wouldn’t be me |
Cause I was born a bastard child, |
Daddy run off and momma run wild |
I got a crooked cowboy smile |
I walk a crooked country mile |
Coulda done worse, shoulda done better |
Momma woulda tried if the bottle ever let her, |
I ain’t prince or a pile, |
ain’t doing bad for a bastard child |
I grew up fast, grew up wild, |
ain’t doing bad for a bastard child |
