I wouldn't name her burden Or call him mistake Or blame them on any Pissed decision I've made
Respect for the man Who pretended to be strong And the woman who helped me Find my song
Blood of a mutt Whipped like a dog Yes I'm a man Though it's taken me so long Formed by the fools Who poisoned my guts With a vengeance to prove it all wrong
Lying on the tracks of influence Of every passing fling Every judgement I make Every song that I sing Friends and foe Every fork in the road Add my tears to my tab And leave me enough to get home
Blood of a mutt Whipped like a dog Yes I'm a man Though it's taken me so long Formed by the fools Who poisoned my guts With a vengeance of hatred and love
With my heart in my pocket Both feet on the gas Failure as my guide Memories made of ash Age by my side So I'm never alone Add my years to my tab But leave me enough for the road
Blood of a mutt Beat like a dog Yes I'm a man Though it's taken me so long Formed by the fools Who poisoned my guts With a vengeance to prove them all wrong
