[Verse 1]
He was a bastard
Even though he knew his daddy
Even had his daddy's angry eyes
Brown as the whiskey
That ran through both their veins
I turned eighteen the day I took his name
[Verse 2]
I was a young girl
Raised up bein' lonely
He was the first boy to look my way
My ticket out
Mighta took me straight to hell
But I take some of that blame and I shoulder it myself
[Chorus 1]
Because I saw in him
What he saw in me
A broken limb
From a crooked family tree
When you got that kinda history
It's hard to break free
When broken's all you know
It's all you know how to be
He was a bastard
Even though he knew his daddy
Even had his daddy's angry eyes
Brown as the whiskey
That ran through both their veins
I turned eighteen the day I took his name
[Verse 2]
I was a young girl
Raised up bein' lonely
He was the first boy to look my way
My ticket out
Mighta took me straight to hell
But I take some of that blame and I shoulder it myself
[Chorus 1]
Because I saw in him
What he saw in me
A broken limb
From a crooked family tree
When you got that kinda history
It's hard to break free
When broken's all you know
It's all you know how to be
