lyrics

Verse

My baby was born in twenty ought three
And in 20 ought 4 she was taken from me

And I wept and drank myself to death
And I felt that I had lost my breath

When I was alone I had no purpose in my days
Sitting drinking like some kind of renegade
And I watched you grow just like a wave
And you’ve become so much better than me

Chorus

Though I’ve lived past my time
I can say that she was mine mine mine
And when I see my girl I say
God I found my renegade
Hey hey hey hey

Verse

When I took you in you know you know you had no use for school
All the things I knew were nothing were the things being taught to you
And I watched you fail and fight like you was made
And I knew that you’d grow into a fucking renegade

Chorus

Though I’ve lived past my time
I could always say that she was mine mine mine
I never guessed that I’d say
God I found my renegade
Hey hey hey hey

Verse

I dreamt that I die when I turn 48
In the house that we’ve built there my body will lay
And I feel that she’ll speak on my grave
And read out the words of some things that I’ve said

Do as I say and never ever what I do
All the times we’ve been apart I was looking after you
Now I’m sorry that I left you and couldn’t keep you safe
But there’s worse things in this world than one little renegade

Chorus

Though I’ve lived past my time
I could always say that she was mine mine mine
And when I see my girl I say
God I found my renegade
Hey hey hey hey
