Help me remember a country song

watcher · #1 09/13/08, 10:21 AM

The wife was talking about all the scars I have and I asked her didn't she know scars are sexy. I tried to remember an not new country song about it but I can't pull it out of my memory.

All I can remember is it had a line about scars being either sexy or cool and it starts off with the singer remembering how when he was a kid he jumped off the roof with a towel around his neck (ala superman). From that he got a broken arm and his first kiss, because girls think scars are sexy.

The wife thinks I'm either going nuts or making it up. So help me please.

Hey y'all.. watch this
Daddy's belt, momma's drapes
Standin' tall on the backyard shed
Lookin' cool in my superman cape
I told the the neighborhood girl
Say hey y'all watch this
My fate was a broken arm
My reward one big kiss
When daddy asked me why I did it
I made him laugh out loud when I told him
'Cause the chicks dig it

Scars heal, glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
Yeah life is short so go on and live it
'Cause the chicks dig it

Black top road
Learner permit
Thought I was Earnhardt
Drivin' fast but I didn't see the ditch
Took out a mailbox, then a fence and then a barn
The police came and called my father
But I met the farmer's daughter
And when the judge asked me why I did it
He threw the book at me when I told him
"'Cause the chicks dig it"

Scars heal, glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
Yeah life is short so go on and live it
'Cause the chicks dig it

Just throw caution to the wind my friend
Then sit back and watch your life begin, ' cause

Scars heal, glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
Yeah life is short so go on and live it
'Cause the chicks dig it

Scars heal, glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
Yeah life is short so go on and live it
It don't matter if you lose or if you win it
Hey the chicks dig it
The chicks dig it
The chicks dig it
The chicks dig it

Ha... you brought back some memories watcher. Not the song per se but a similar incident. I didn't jump off the roof with a towel round my neck... I convinced my then 8 y.o. sister to do it (I was 9 y.o.). She got the broken arm... and several kisses (from mom, dad, grandma, etc.)... I got a sore butt (no scars and not very dang sexy either :baby04

There's also a good one (a little more serious) by MONTGOMERY GENTRY called "Tattoo's and scars are differnt things" about a kid that comes into a bar showing off his tattoos, and an old man shows him scars he got from working and going to war
