Got a scar on my heart and dust on my boots Learned how to fight in hand-me-down suits Mama raised a wildfire, Daddy raised steel Now I run on truth, not the turn of the wheel There's a rattle in my soul and thunder in my veins I don't break easy, I just bend with the strain Got a six-string prayer and a rebel's role Ain’t no chain strong enough to hold this soul Midnight highway, I ride like a storm Tattoos and trouble, where legends are born Every mile’s a story, every town’s a test But I ain't slowing down till they lay me to rest There's a rattle in my soul and thunder in my veins I don't break easy, I just bend with the strain Got a six-string prayer and a rebel's role Ain’t no chain strong enough to hold this soul Give me that slide guitar and a bottle of fire Crank it up loud like a funeral pyre If I go down, it'll be in flames With a boot stomp beat and a runaway name There’s a rattle in my soul, hear it echo and roll Can’t cage the wind or tame the bold Got a six-string prayer and a rebel’s role Ain’t no chain strong enough to hold this soul
