It Don’t Scare Me None
Well, it don't scare me none
I've been there before
Sideswiped an old Oak tree
In a rusted-out old Ford
Shot at guys who were shootin' back
In the Second World War
And it don't scare me none
I've been there before
Well I fell in love with a woman
Who did not love me back
Bare-handled rattle snakes
And threw 'em in a sack
Honkey tonked with strangers
Who were eating broken glass
Well, it don't scare me none
'Cause I'll be comin' back
I take from my loved ones
To gamble on my friends
I take the long way home
And the fun never ends
Woke up blurry-eyed
Wonderin' where I've been
I've wrestled with my conscience
But my conscience never wins
No you don't scare me none
I've been there before
Sideswiped an old Oak tree
In a rusted-out old Ford
Shot at guys who were shooting back
In the Second World War
And it don't scare me none
I've been there before
Well, the preacher man, he told me
I'd better change my ways
Put a lid on the boilin' pot
Or there'd be Hell to pay
Hell ain't no place
For a guy to jump the track
But it don't scare me none
'Cause man, I'm coming back
Well it don't scare me none
I've been there before
Sideswiped an old Oak tree
In a rusted-out old Ford
Shot at guys who were shooting back
In the Second World War
And it don't scare me none
'Cause I've been there before
