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 d**h 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 f**ing 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
